Question Computer shutting down during tough games yet passes stress tests
I've noticed my computer shuts down during certain games that require more power. At first, I assumed the problem was with the power supply, so I replaced it, but the issue continued. I also tried reseating the RAM, changing the slots, and running a stress test on the components. The stress test passed without overheating, yet the problem remained. Could you suggest any possible solutions?
The software being used for stress testing is not specified in the provided context.
What graphics card are you using? And what type of CPU cooler are you employing?
Consider trying an Intel burn test to observe the maximum temperatures.
I believe you're mainly taxing the CPU during AIDA64, but when playing tougher games your GPU is also working harder, causing the power draw to exceed what your power supply can manage.
My GPU is a Radeon RX 6650 XT, and I realized I had missed something in the initial post. My CPU cooler is a DeepCool AK400. During my final test with Aida, I performed a comprehensive system stress test covering CPU, GPU, RAM, drives, and FPU. The temperature panel recorded peak temperatures of 78 C for both the CPU and GPU, remaining mostly stable throughout the 20-minute test period, unlike the system crashes that typically occur within 5 minutes when launching games.
I reinitialized the BIOS to its standard setting, applied the latest update, adjusted the RAM speed, and disabled PBO within the BIOS, yet the issue persists. Could there be a method to evaluate each CPU core separately?
