Question SOS -- System crashes during gaming and restarts?
Question SOS -- System crashes during gaming and restarts?
speccy mentioned my motherboard is running at 96c, but when I use a normal desk fan blowing on it, it drops to 91c. However, if I run a similar setup (re:run by dani on YouTube), the PC restarts itself without a BSOD and then turns back on. Please help me avoid wasting all my money on this setup.
i7 or i5 option available
8 drr3 ram installed
asus r9 290x included
power supply cooler master 750 w, this model is 750 w
alienware motherboard with no integrated gpu
pc built in 2013, full specs are unclear
jet system
windows 10 pro
located in the room, estimated around ~25c
my previous setup had an igpu with an msi motherboard, amd cpu and ddr3 ram
old pc uses a 7c cpu
Your issue is probably due to high VRM temperatures on your motherboard, leading to overheating. Since I don't know the specific model, I can only recommend cleaning the entire PC to eliminate dust and ensuring all fans operate properly. Lowering the temperature is essential.
I understand which BIOS key to press in 2013 for entry, such as F2 or Delete. Your old PC's motherboard temperature is normal, and it doesn't seem to have a VRM cooler.
