i jus bought a PC with 9800GTX . i played crysis with 500 wat supply..
it tends to crash back to Windows mode.Worst, it reboot/restart itself entirely.. I updated the latest graphic drivers. I din update the game patch by the way

Am i having power supply issue here..?

Kindly pls advise ..I really love this game alot..

Here;s my spec.

Chipset :Q6600 2.4ghz,
RAM :2x Kingston DDR2 KVR800 RAM
Graphic Card :MSI 9800GTX (Non - Overclock)
Motherboard :MSI MS7512 Platinum(CF)
PSU :Cooler master-Extreme Power Plus 500 wat
OS : Window XP SP3

it happens rarely during idle...

but when during loading time especially Crysis.. always crash back to windows mode or u get bluescreen

i play max 30 minutes max b4 tat crash..

shud i get "700watt cool master real power psu"

how about Cool master 700watt Real power?

more than enuf ..

i consider for future SLI integration..

its the PSU 700watt enuf for SLI?
