Windows 10 Power Issues

[Viper10]

Hi,

I need some advise. I'm having PSU issues I believe. Basically while playing games (AC Odyssey mainly) the computer just turns off (after a while). Manage to reboot but the same thing happens (when playing games). I've changed plug sockets and changed the power cable but it still happens. Even tried to run a 3d test on OCCT but the power just turns off at the start. It happened last week a couple of times (high winds at the time). I'm running 23.11.1 (Radeon drivers).....Might try installing 23.12.1 but I don't think that's the issue. Also did a three hour virus scan with Malwarebytes and a Windows Defender (offline) scan.

What else would you recommend I try ?


Regards

I'd make sure your internal power cables are secure, especially if it has been moved recently.

Unplugged CPU cable and checked other cables and did a bit of dusting.​

Are you monitoring temperatures? Maybe somethings overheating.

Managed to do an OCCT test (shader level 3) for 15 mins and no errors occurred. Hot spot was 94 (max) and Memory Junction 74 for GPU. I don't tend to monitor temps during gaming but can do. Are we talking GPU or CPU or everything ?

Thanks
