The PC will restart during the play of an AAA game?
when i play Halo Infinite for about half an hour my pc restarts, but this doesn't occur during sessions with War Thunder, Kingdom Come, Halo MCC (though some micro stutters appear), and Genshin Impact.
specs: ryan zen 3 3200g (supports 2933mhz but runs at 3200mhz), ram 3200mhz 8*2 t force vulcan, msi b450m a pro max, asus dual rx6600, psu corsair vs550.
i've tried various solutions: cpu temps stay between 60-65°C under load, which seems normal for the gpu; drivers are all up to date.
when i run stress tests like prime95 it functions properly, but furmark causes immediate restarts and when i checked logs there was a critical event stating "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly."
is this related to a windows issue, psu failure, or cpu problem? my cpu reaches 100% utilization during AAA games or unoptimized titles?
thanks
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
psu corsair vs550
What's the age of the PSU in your setup?
ryzen 3 3200g (works at 2933mhz but operates at 3200mhz)
How do you manage your processor cooling?
msi b450m a pro max
Which BIOS version is active on your motherboard?
Thanks for your response.
What's the age of your PSU in this build?
-I purchased the PC last week, possibly it's brand new, I'm not sure.
How is your processor being cooled?
-The original cooler, I've kept an eye on the temperatures, they're usually below 70 during gameplay.
What BIOS version are you using for your motherboard?
-E7C52AMS.A00
Also, I'm running Windows 11 and the motherboard is MSI B450M A Pro Max (I don't know if that matters). Also, I'm not using an ups and only have a surge protector.
I'm sorry, I didn't include the GPU. It appears to be an ASUS Dual RX6600.
Usually, when I hear "PC restarts while gaming," my initial thought is about a weak power supply unit. Corsair is a well-known brand, but it's possible you're exceeding its limits during gameplay.
Check if 550w is sufficient for your R5 3600 and RX6600, and consider upgrading to a 650w model if needed.
