FrozenMetroid Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I had this years back when Crysis first came out. The system always shutdown when I got to a specific scene and it baffled me for ages. Turned out that my power supply wasn't powerful enough even though every other game was fine, that particular graphically intensive scene in Crysis was just too much. If you can try a different power supply with a bit more grunt, it may sort out your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soumyablacklist Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 Sir, What PSU do you recommend? SEASONIC S12II SERIES 620W POWER SUPPLY W/80+ BRONZE CERTIFICATION This is the PSU available in my country. Will this suffice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snapper69 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Seasonic certainly make very good power supplies and that one is about 35% more powerful than the one that you have, however, unless your psu is faulty, I would have expected it to cope with your system. The 2 test fails indicate that the problem is your psu, so that is probably the best place to start.Are you saying that this is the only PSU that you can get in your country, or that it's the best at a reasonable price?

asrarhassan Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Put your GPU and CPU on stress while monitoring your wattage draw by using something like this. http://www.amazon.com/P3-P4400-Electricity-Usage-Monitor/dp/B00009MDBU If your Power draw is below 300 watts at full load then its alright, else change your power supply. Also ground your PSU with proper three pin wall outlet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
