Hi, I have a really annoying problem with Day Z Standalone. When I play the game, it suddenly shuts down my PC without any reason. It's like you have pressed the on/off button of your pc too long, but in case of my problem the pc restarts. I have this problem since I have started playing Day Z, but now with my new GPU it gets really annoying, as it occurs every time I play the game (with the gtx 660 ti I just had this problem from time to time -> that's why it was not so annoying) The strange thing is, that it just happens with Day Z Standalone. I can play games like The Witcher 3, CS-GO, Paragon, UT,... on ultra settings without this strange shut down of my pc + my specs should be good enough to play Day Z Specs: gpu - zotac gtx 960 amp edition (4gb Vram) cpu - intel i5-3570 3.4GHz 8 GB RAM power supply - dont know the brand, but it has 550 W The temperature of the CPU and GPU is ok (around 50°) + I have tested it on Windows 7 and Windows 10 + I reinstalled Day Z + I checked how much W my PC needs (e.g it already crashes at 0.7 ampere = 180 W) + nothing in the windwos event viewer (just that there was an unexpected restart) + Somebody has an idea what I can do against this problem? I really want to play Day Z again. :(

Hmm, seems like a Day Z problem. The temperature is perfect and my PC is not crashing during different benchmarks and stresstests + my system isn't even running on full power (just when I play the witcher 3 I max out my system). The last thing that I will test is to use a better PSU, when it's not working I will have to wait for the next update. :(

Thx for all your replies! :) @JBURNS489 == I checked my temperature with core temp and on idle it was at 40° and during Day Z it went up to max 60°. The PC is not overclocked, everything is on default settings. Will check the temperature in BIOS + will run a stress test @Fightn Irish == I will try to get a 650 or 750 W to test it :) I will report back when I have tested all those things.
