Need some help. My PC restarts randomly when I am playing COD4.

Some background is that I had AMD 7870HD and switched it out with GTX 1080 TI. Thats when I started noticing that my system would restart once in 30 mins in COD4. I attributed that to legacy drivers from AMD or some crap in registry.

I did a clean install of windows last week (formatted the drive) and now I have a restart in COD for once in 5-10 mins. Not sure what the issue is.

I am not overclocking, CPU or GPU. They are running in stock config. CPU is on liquid cooling and case has 4 fans so plenty of cooling. GPU is Asus strix 1080TI (has 3 fans) so shouldnt be heating up. I am running memory on XMP so there is some overclocking there but I tried disabling XMP but no change.

Power-wise, I have a single GPU system with one NVME drive (Samsung 960PRO) and two HDDs 2TB each. My PSU is Corsair HX850 so should be ample power.

Another data point is that I have run GPU stress test FurMark and no restarts. I also tried playing Battlefield 4 (1 hr+) and no restart. Max GPU temp seen was 68C.

The restart only happens in COD4. I have attached a snapshot of HWMonitor outpu

Any advice on how to debug this issue?

Below is the HWMonitor readings after 1 Hr of BF4

software usually locks up pc or gets a memory dump. restarting usually something somewhere in hardware.

look @  your motherboard for firmware updates,  most  MB manufactures  have a software update for MB  eg.  Asus  uses  Suite


I'm thinking bios, chipset  software  READ all info before updating bios otherwise  you  can  make a door stop out of computer

if not follow instuctions

didn't  what  OS using
