    Noob question

    Hello...this here message seems to be the first one i'm writing to these forums so hello to everybody :)

    My system is using Nexus NX-5000 500W PSU...i've had problems, where the system reboots itself during gaming. I can play BF2 about 60-120 mins and then it could happen. In FEAR, it doens't happen nearly as often as in BF2, but it did also reboot in it couple of times when playing the game through. I've noticed, that the problem occures a bit irregular...the system could stay on fine couple of days but next day it may reboot. Since the temperatures of my system should be fine, I've come to conclusion that the PSU is insufficient to my system...though some people have said that it should be enough to my system. What do you guru guys think of that?

    Now, i've tried to look for a new PSU and one person listed me good PSU's, one being Fortron Epsilon. FX600-GLN seems to be the one that feels a good choice. Is this a good/sufficient PSU for my system? I've a good guess on what you guys are gonna say but I thought to ask it anyway :)

    Hi there,

    You didn't mention the spec of your system apart from the current PSU you are using. If you can provide more detail info on your system, we can go from there.

    Thanks

    The new PSU seemed to fix my problem, no more reboots during gaming. I chose 600W Fortron Epsilon as my new PSU. Nice one :)
