2·
1 year agoIt’s important to know what’s going on when the computer cuts power. I had this start happening to me when I was playing VR games. I had been using the same hardware to do so for a year beforehand, but it turns out I was just riding the limit of what the PSU could supply. When I actually took a look at how many watts the UPS was reporting it was happily under the PSU’s rating, however Nvidia GPUs are known to power spike at times and draw way more power than they’re supposed to. That’s what was causing my issues. An upgraded PSU indeed fixed everything.
It’s so cool that you’re doing this, tysm! I’d love to play God of War if I end up getting rolled, it’s been on my list for ages
My happy story is that 2023 was the first full calendar year I spent with my current partner and love of my life ❤️
Happy holidays!
