hi nice forum
ive built a new rig
-i5 2500k+artic cooling i3
-asus sabertooth p67
-asus gtx560 ti top
-8g g-skills ripjaw 1600mtz cl9
-64gig m4 ssd sys drive
-2tb hitachi hdd deskstar3k
all have latest drivers
I kept my old PSU thermaltake toughpower 700w (12v 2.2) w0105 its about 5 years old but I thought would be ok???
all seemed to go well and ive ran prime95 and stressed CPU for half an hour and temps were fine mid 60's,heaven,and also futuremark which gave expected score for my spec ive ran furmark for half an hour on max settings and was fine my gpu hit 71 degrees at 99% load but was fine,yet I play empire total war for 10 mins and it just reboots the same with counter strike source 10 mins on max settings and it just goes off,no BSOD just reboots and win 7 states incorresct shutdown..
now im thinking PSU but could do with some advice my first post but have been a long time lurker here and I know theres a few experts any help most welcome
**edit** read this on another forum "gtx560Ti requires 30Amp on 12V rail"could this be my issue although strange it benches fine im baffled
