100% GPU USAGE THEN CRASH

[b2]

im using
gtx aorus 1080ti
ram 16gb
cpu intel core i7-8700k

i cant play anygame for more than 30-1hr
only some game that i have to turn off
this is a new pc btw

for more info https://gyazo.com/971b9f4b3dc61ebe4eae55f9de8c68cb

it crashed later

[𝔇ave]

up the fan curve, its probably overheating

masterwatts650(PSCMMPX-6501-AMAAB)

BTW sombody from my friend has the exact same PC we ordered same time and he has no problems

If it's a pre-build send it back because I'm not sure what you can do without voiding the warranty.

It sounds like a overheating issue or a PSU issue, but your PSU is a tier 3 so it should be okay but might still be defective if you're not overheating.

Well, that's not the worst psu, but definitely not quite what you would want to have paired with GTX 1080Ti and 8700K.

Your friend might just be lucky with their psu, he could get the same problems later.
Or if it's a heat issue, it's simply because their house/room is cooler.

im not sure but in the game i played i had fps limit 200
but i play Overwatch with 300 fps limit and my gpu usage is 36%-4X%

i put the pc somwhere its cooler now but that doesnt stop the problem

The psu is a budget model, so it isn't a good match for an 8700k/1080ti. So I think that would be the cause of the problem.

Does the pc suddenly turn off or do you just get a black screen?

No but the game crashes

and then i restart game ;/

Ok i dont think its gpu's problem because now it was 50% and then it crashed(thegame) the memory reached 2907

As a test try underclocking the gpu. To do this use msi afterburner or the aorus utility software. Alternatively use the aorus software to put the gpu into silent mode. This reduces the load on the psu.

jonnyguru rates a different masterwatt model at 6.5/10 for power control performance.

edit:
Another comment for a 750W review says that it has "some pretty high ripple on all rails". If so the result will be a gpu crash when running at high load.

ok i putted silent mode

^^ this all is normal right ?

i might repsond very late

Yes. I have the same card. Underclocking reduces the load on the psu.

What happens is that as the load on the cpu and gpu increase the power usage increases as well. On low quality psus this causes the power to fluctuate (known as ripple) which causes the gpu to crash.

Take your time. I might not be able to check back for 12 hours or so.

If only this game crashes while the system itself works, it is more likely a problem with the driver and/or the game itself. Can you run some 3D benchmark for long periods that drive your system to full use without issues?

ok i for first time played with full best settings and never crashed i was using 60-99% gpu usage
and cpu 35%-4X%
Wow lol so do i have to always use silent mode or should i upgrade my PSU

These pre builds are bound to have issues such crashes or similar events. Another reason why i prefer if you build it on your own.

If the game just crashes and the PC doesn't just shutoff. Its probably not overheating. However if your overclocking that causes instabilty. Do you have other games . Play them to see if they also cause crashes. If not is an issue between that game and your PC hardware. Also run a temp monitor such as CPUID HWmonitor to see if you are actually having any kind of temp issues. Run the game for a couple of minutes with HWMonitor running then exit the game and note your max temps on your GPU and your CPU.
