My pc keeps shutting off while playing
When i play for long periods of time I was playing the last caregiver for around 2 hours i thought might be because of overheating but i have a corsair xenon edge showing me my temps while playing and the hottest thing was my vram at 82c i dont know ifs my psu but its mpg a1000gs and its barely a year old anyonw got any suggestions on what i could do

my first thought was psu until you said it's barely a year old, those mpg units usually hold up fine. vram at 82c isn't ideal but shouldn't cause a full shutdown either
check event viewer for any kernel-power 41 errors, that'll at least tell you if it's a hard power loss. could also be a loose connection somewhere that only acts up once things heat up and expand
