Hello.I am new here.Before 1.5 week i bought the Gigabyte GTX 590 Graphics Card.I test some games in full graphics options cause i think this card is nuke.For example Deus Ex Human Revolution and while playing game freeze and crashed.Also i test Saints Row The Third and while playing about 10 minutes my PC shutdowns instant.Like when electric power lost.When i power on the pc i don't see a message in windows for error.Nothing.So what the reason for this?My pc's specifications is the following:
Case: CoolerMaster Cosmos S Window
PSU: Thermaltake 850W
Mainboard: MSI 790 FX-GD70
CPU: AMD Phenom II x4 965 BE-C2 3.4 GHz(No overclocking)
RAM: Corsair 8GB DDR3 1600 MHz 4x2GB 1.65V
VGA: Gigabyte GTX 590 GV-N590D5-3GD-B
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64 ENG
I have many fans for cooling in case and for cpu the amd's one.Temperatures is ok.I'll check often.Please help me.Where is the problem?

Hey.Thanks.Happy new year too.Ok.My PSU is the following:

Your PSU isn't powerful enough on the 12v rails. It averages out at 15A each which is nowhere near enough for the GPU. The total is according to the spec: Four +12V rails provides superior performance (combined loading of 62A). A single rail would have suited you better.

So the solution is to buy a new PSU with 1000W power?What do you think.Can you tell me for sure?Tnx for reply

Hey mate.I read it.So i think i must buy this one http://www.coolermaster.com/product.php?product_id=6628 What is your opinion?Is it enough for my GTX 590? Thanks :)
-
That PSU has a single 12v power rail at 80A so should be fine for your card. These dual GPU cards draw a lot of power and you also need to consider the drop in output as the PSU ages too.

Ok.Thank you m8.So i look forward to buy this one :) I hope problem will be solved after psu change
-
Well good luck and let us know how it goes with the new GPU! ;)

Hey guys.I am back again and i need your help for sure.Can you tell me m8?If this one PSU http://www.thermaltake.com/products-model_Specification.aspx?id=C_00001781 is ok for my GPU?Cause i can't find right now the coolermaster silent pro M1000.Please answer as soon as possible.Thanks

Hi Dude,
I would say that PSU should work fine as long as you use the two rails from the 12v supply (50A for 12V3 & 12V4) they should be more than powerful enough.
-
M8 propably i do wrong.The PSU that i saw for buying is this one at last http://www.thermaltake.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00001000 So this is ok for my GPU?Sorry again m8 and tnx a lot from the previous answer
-
It is similar but not quite as good as the other one but it should work fine as long as you use two different 12v rails to supply the GPU. That way you will be getting enough power to the card no matter what.

I see in features write this " Four independent +12V rails provides superior performance
(Total Combined load of +12V is 120A) " So you think it's ok?I just want to be sure to buy it without worries :)

If you read all the documentation rather than just skim over the surface you will find that it explains about the 12v rails and the fact that each must be capable of under 20A to fall in line with the regulations/specifications. Hence the reasoning for splitting the output rather than using a single 12v rail which is the best solution. As I explained just make sure that you use two of the seperate rails to get the most output for a single card.

Ok.I just want to let you know that problem solved after use this one PSU Thermaltake 1500W.I put one different 12v3 rail and one different 12v4 rail to vga from PSU and all works well now.Thanks for help.I hope never again need to i take your times guys :) Cheers

I am glad to hear that you have managed to get it working now and that I was correct in the advice I gave ;) I hope that you have a long time now without any problems and can enjoy your system.
