F15C - PC Turning off

[txmtb]

is there any software I could use to check the voltages of the PSU?

 

thanks all

 

You can try HWinfo and see if it will read the motherboard voltages, when I had issues with high load causing crashes I used it and could see the 12v was dipping way too low during high loads. New PSU fixed it right up.

You can set it up to log to a csv file, that way if the pc does crash, you have the last info in the csv files before the crash.

It's not the programming of your cougar that eventually restarts your PC by accident?

 

in fact i did not even create a cougar profile for F15C

I just set up the axes and some direct buttons on DCS

 

PSU, not that I know of. There is GPU-z for video cards that could write a monitoring log, so you could check if the video card is overheating, vRAM exceeded, or voltage rising unexpected.

CPU-z provides similar for the CPU.

 

thanks for the tips, I will use them

Do you have any BSOD logs?

 

C:\Windows\Minidump. If so can you upload them via mediafire/or another host.

Then my money would be on CPU not getting insufficient voltage.

Hey guys

 

after several memory tests, temperature and stress test, finally I found the problem.

Those who bet on the PSU were right. My PSU is with a considerable variation in 12v power.

I'll have to buy a new one, but for now I'm using another 600w PSU, even have enough money to buy a new one. here in Brazil a good quality PSU is very expensive :cry:

until there my F15 remains in the hangar :(

 

I want to thank everyone for their help and I apologize for any annoyance I have caused.

i7 3770= 80w

Gtx680= 200w (16.4A)

Motherboard (H61)= 40w

Ram (1.5v)= 5w per module

Fan= 4w each

HD= 8w each (The only hungry HD are the 10K rpm (15w))

Usb=

 

Your system need around 360w (90% utilization) to run the game.

A system with a Gtx680 need 38 Amps (+12v) to run. I mean a 550w power supply.

 

Your 600w power supply can do the job: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-680/specifications

You can know of the quality of your power supply by the wattage he can deliver in the form of +12v power.

 

Exemple:

Corsair CS650w: 612w (+12v): http://www.corsair.com/en-ca/cs-series-modular-cs650m-650-watt-80-plus-gold-certified-psu

Corsair RM650w: 650w (+12v): http://www.corsair.com/en-ca/rm-series-rm650-80-plus-gold-certified-power-supply

For info:

If you take a look at the tech specs. The total power of 650w is at the DC output.

A 650w power supply can delivery 650w at the output. He will need more at the input, depending of his efficiency.

No Problem, glad you found it.
