    PCSPECIALIST Switching Off during mid-games

    sorry, the new psu fixed the random turning off issues and the ram made no difference with the sticks being interchanged. By repasting I meant taking the heatsink off, removing the old thermal paste and reapplying some new thermal paste. it reduced the temps by around 10° idling and it kept...

    Hey All, I have been having an issue again with my PC as it is now turning to a black/blue screen randomly on games then forcing me to turn it off as none of the Windows Graphics Reset commands are working and it just doesn't respond to any inputs until i have restarted it.

    I suspect something was wrong with the two ram sticks, switching them to the other slot showed them still as 2166mhz. I have taken them out and will try playing some games now to see if it has helped the sudden turn offs. will report back the results

    PCSPECIALIST Switching Off during mid-games

    Hello there, Son speaking, the BSODs have still happened even after removing all the overclocks and the Overwolf software, they happen mostly when playing games but once when browsing the web. There are no new dumps in the C:\Windows\Minidumps folder. I cant attach the System Logs as the file...

    Bear with me and be gentle on this one, as I am far from an expert! Am looking for assistance/advice, as my sons PC tends to switch off when playing his games, especially MS Flight Sim.
