Hey folks,

I suspect my psu is failing, would instant reboot on any games i launch + heaven benchmark, as of now I’ve strip the rig down to just the cpu/cooler/psu to stress the cpu just to isolate the problem, generally with the gpu it draws more power than the cpu on load (correct me if im wrong). So far running aida64 for an hour and it didn’t crash yet. Can any tech savvy guy advised? At the moment I can’t find anyone with a rig or psu to let me troubleshoot, anyone knows any shop in simlim have a test bench i could go down and test my gpu?

i ran another bench close to 3 hours while i was out, didn't crash as well, went to a buddy place to test my gpu, ran valley and games and it's not crashing either, am i closer to a conclusion where by my psu ain't putting out enough power to my gpu?
