Need help with computer shutting down during GPU stress

You need more cooling; I ain't reading the rest of that shit.

>inb4 OP gets a CPU cooler for his GPU
Hint: get a better case.

Thanks, if you had read on you'd see that I have monitored the GPU and it is not going past 83 degrees. and it's not shutting down when it gets there, it takes like 5 minutes. Max for the card is 98 degrees.

Everything worked dandy before the reinstall. Nownit isnt?

Its clearly a driver's issue.
The issue may be happening due to the img you made with its old drivers and windows automatic driver updates. You may even have some double install or even a corrupted over write.

Dont to a reimgage. Reformat your drive and perform a fresh install from CD.

If you dont have it, then pirate windows 10 (its 2017. Upgrade kiddo) and burn to disc or flashdrive.

Dont use your old image. The problem likely lies there.


After a absolute fresh install along with all drivers from their offical websites, download steam again and test out GPU and see if the the system crashes to turn off again. If no issues then enjoy. Recover all your old libraries from scratch kiddo. A small price to pay for no more crashes.

im almost certain this will fix the issue but *IF* THE problem persists after a clean install, then its very obvious a hardware problem. So then you know where the problem is and you can go from there.

But first you need to eliminate either software/hardware from being the problem before

Thanks mate.

I guess it's time to go for windows 10... I think it's a driver issue too and what you write makes sense (about having old drivers/double install etc.). I don't have any other images currently but that shouldn't be hard to find. The computer is running completely stable when NOT gaming (current record 10 hours). I'll format the ssd AND the sshd and install win10 when I get home. If same issues I have another PSU available I can try, and at least remove the possibility of bad PSU being the cause.

power supplies die sometimes. If components regularly fail during stress but aren't getting hot that's the first thing I'd check. If your computer unexpectedly shuts down without a blue screen that's your power supply almost every time.

>driver issue
Driver issues cause BSOD, not sudden shutdowns with no errors

A sudden shutdown means a power issue.

Also there's no fucking reason a GPU idling at 35 should get to 83, that doesn't make any sense. Are you overclocking?
