PC RESET ITSELF
HI guys, I wanna ask something my computer before running games really fine, but around one week before suddenly when playing games even only one minute my computer reset like someone power off my computer and turn it on. After searching on the internet the problem stated in the computer, first I change the thermal paste and then clean all the dust in the computer. The problem still persist and I've tried running Primo95 for CPU stress test, works fine and when running the FurMark for the GPU stress training the computer reset itself. And I've tried others GPU stress test like OCCT, it happen again. Being using the latest AMD GPU software.
Here are the spec of my computer.
Motherboard
MSI 970-G43
Processor
AMD FX 6100
Power Supply
Cooler Master G760M
RAM
2 x 4 GB 1600
Hard Disk
2 x HDD
PS: Is my GPU out or what

Good day munzirawang,
There could be several reasons to this. Could be the hardware issue such as the PSU not supplying enough power or your CPU is overheating. Some newer GPU, anything less than a 500 watt PSU is probably going to give you the trouble.
Maybe it could be a virus, make sure that you get it up to date antivirus software.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

possible reason 1. driver - got update any driver recently? 2. GPU having problem 3. PSU having problem, when draw more power, it cut off. 4. Possible RAM issue- any bluescreen when restart? 5. Heat - Thermal paste, you apply thin layer or thick layer? but this less possible.

Bought it second hand, the year of purchase Febuary 2014 for the original user and bought it around earlier this year If it is still under warranty, is better not to change, because it is required to disassemble the card. But if u want to proceed, the procedure is similar to the CPU, just remove the heatsink. Check the GPU temperature and see how it goes, could be cause by overheating. Check all the cable and wiring make sure they are properly plugged in, especially those 6/8pin power connector on the GPU.
