think i need another psu

[manius]

well i bought a antec edge 650w less then a month ago as my old one died but at the same time i had to rma my gpu r9 290 well that card was dead so got a refund and bought a r9 290x that came today so i put it in installed it all went to load bf4 then the pc just shuts down im getting event 41 kernal power in my event viewer so the only thing i can think of is that the psu is not man enough for my pc with the new card in it
my pc spec is

i7 4790k
asus maximus ranger
8gb amd gamer ram
r2 290x
2xssd
2xhdd
6 fans and standard cpu cooler at the moment

could it be the new gpu or dose that error just relate to the psu ??

 

[manius]

no overclock at the moment so not that
i ahd a antec p190 case that came with dual psu's one of them just died of old age i think was 8 years old
ive just looked on amazon where i got the psu from i have ill the 1st of april to send it back for a refund of £87 so i think im going to do that and order one from oc now was thinking this

wow 10 year warranty with the evga's think im going to order the 1000w one

 

[manius]

this came today and all is fine


so im asuming the antec edge 650w was faulty or not upto the job of the r9 290x
luckily i got a full refund from amazon for it

 

[manius]

yer im glad i sent it back and got the evga as im sure i will be adding another card when they go down in price also the 10 year warranty it great
