Question MSI RX 580 V1 8GB restarts PC after playing a bit of Shadows of Mordor
Greetings,
I've been having a problem playing Shadows of Mordor the PC restarts after like 30 minutes of playing. It only happens with that game and also shadows of war. I saw some videos in which they low the slider of the frequency of the gpu in the gpu tuning section also low the Vram slider to the base 1750Mhz but I noticed something weird. When I enable the advanced control in the gpu tuning option it shows me a metric bar option but the red bar surpasses the white line in the graphics, In the videos I've seen the red bar does not surpass the white line.
I dont think is this a good think but i prefer to ask. I checked the CPU and it's not over heating niether the PSU is geting hot. and it's only giving problems with this games. I already updated the drivers to the latest ones. And i didn't move the sliders for gpu tuning or vram tuning yet but it got the bar graphic thing.
The specs are:
OS: Windows 10
CPU: Ryzen 7 5700G
RAM: 32GB 3200Mhz
Motherboard: Asrock B450-HDV R 4.0
video card: MSI 580 V1 8GB
PSU: Seasonic G12 GC-750 750 Watts

I've encountered an issue where the PC restarts after about 30 minutes of playing Shadows of Mordor. This usually happens due to two factors: overheating or a PSU that's being overloaded. Checking your specifications, I suspect it might not be the PSU but rather the age of the unit. The motherboard seems to lack proper VRM design and a heatsink, which points to a potential root cause. Try directing a fan toward the VRM area to see if it resolves the problem. Also, consider undervolting your GPU if you're using one. Regarding the BIOS version on your motherboard, have you tried adjusting it?
All parts are a year old except the PSU I purchased in November 2024, which is the latest hardware I own. I replaced the previous PSU because it became unstable during gaming with the 750-watt one I have now. The oldest component is the GPU, which was a gift. The system ran smoothly with Resident Evil 2 Remake and Resident Evil 3 Remake. The two Lord of the Rings titles are causing issues. The motherboard BIOS is P4.70; I didn’t update it due to a warning message on the Asrock website, and I didn’t want to risk something.
