omega79 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Hi There I have not a lot time to play games anymore ... job/family ... you know But now I am a "grass widower" for a few weeks, so i came back to play a little The Problem is: If I play RenX a longer, or sometimes a very short, time my PC just turns off ... completely ... like someone cut the Power on a desktop PC. It only happens with RenX , and it never happened b4 (even with other versions of RenX) My SYS: Win7 Intel i73630QM (4 x 2,4GHz) 8 GB Ram GeForce GTX 660M (Driver up to date) The game is installed on a SSD drive I know its a Laptop, and not the newest Hardware, but that havent been a problem with any game yet! did that happen to anyone b4? any ideas?

nBab Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 It sounds like an overheat/overclock problem. have you tried running some stress tests to see if your cpu/gpu overheats/crashes outside of Renx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoundShades Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 No blue screen? This sounds like a motherboard or gpu issue. If either goes out, the computer will act like it just loses power. This obviously happens with other games, right? You might want to check hardware troubleshooting forums on Google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totem Arts Staff kenz3001 Posted August 19, 2016 Totem Arts Staff Share Posted August 19, 2016 game log would help but id the pc is shutting down ... it usaly means something is wrong with hardware would suggest running some stress tests like Aida64 https://www.aida64.com/ run each test in turn and see if ya pc shuts down ... cpu ram and gpu .... if ya pc does shutdown ... go though the test logs it should tell you why my bet is overheating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omega79 Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 Thanks guys like I said, it happened only in RenX so far. Because I thought it might be a overheating issue I did Stresstests b4, GPU and CPU 100% load for 15 Minutes ... No Problem Thats why I thought it might be some issue with the game BUT I did not think about the RAM ... and it seems to be the RAM, aida64 cancles the RAM stresstest after around 2 minutes speacial thanks to Kenz for reminding me about the ram guess i have to get a new ram bar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
