Freezes when playing under load

[Crabyk]

When playing battelfield 1 it freezes for about 15 or 20 minutes looking at hwinfo on the 12v rail goes down to 11.6 and using a benchmark it can go down to 11.5

 

No load remains at 12,096 using a browser at 12,024 and using some non-demanding game 11,952

 

Using a tester gives this result

DO you use extensions on your cables? If not are yuou using the cables that came with the PSU?

 

Extensions can cause those voltage drops

I don't use extensions I don't know if with those voltages I should have problems in that game or if it's something from software or windows update

My ssd has 82% life but I don't think the ssd is the problem

 

Any suggestion?

 

on which rail is the gpu used if it is v1 or v2 or -12 in the tester?

[LeDoyen]

it's all the same regulator. there's only one +12v supply.

 

-12 is only a voltage reference with no power

If a cable is bent in only one position, can it affect the load voltage?

Usually bending cables does not do any damage but your PSU is a real dinosaur and you may want to consider jumping to a RM850 (2019) which is far more modern in design. It's also cheaper too.
