Anyone can give me some ideas as to why my PC is restarting whenever I launch a game and try playing it. I have made sure all connections are tight. Swapped the power cable. Updated all my drivers and updated windows. Ran a virus scan.And temps are normal too. My PSU is a Corsair CX 750M. I think it’s around 6-7 years old. Does that mean my PSU needs to be replaced?

You might get some informations in eventlog.msc in the system log part
I’d try running a cpu benchmark like cinebench to check if the system handle non-gpu power spike and then a gpu benchmark like 3dmark to see what happens

I ran userbenchmark and the pc was fine.
I'll try reseating the gpu
Hey, i think reseating the gpu fixed the issue. I feel stupid for not trying that.
Thank you!
