gtx560 issue

Sup,

Just installed Gigabyte GTX560, when I start a game the whole system instantly reboots.

No idea sup, could be my PSU that's insufficient but that wouldn't crash your system afaik, just make it slower.

Rig:

MBO: ASUS P7H57D-V EVO
PSU: Power X2 ATX450204 450W
GFX: GIGABYTE GTX560
RAM: 4GB
CPU: Intel i3 540

If it doesn't give enough power, it doesn't slow down, it stalls and crashes. Does it really give 450w or just say that it does, some shit-units don't really keep their promises.

Had the same problem, thought that it was the GFX giving problems, bougth a new one and it kept doing the same. Bought better PSU and all works now. Too bad I didn't realize it before I throw my perfectly working HD4870 away :)

I have a 500W PSU and i asked would it be sufficient to run GTX 560 Ti this is what some answered:
Quote by overclock3d.netAlso for the PSU, 500w is fine for a single card set up. 450w is even enough.

which cpu u have?

Seems like cheap-ass PSU get a good one around 500W from XFX/Corsair/Seasonic/Silverstone/Enermax and you should be fine. Corsair/XFX PSU's are mostly made by Seasonic and they are good.

I, for one, think you should write a song about how you feel.
