Good Evening everyone,

I have been dealing with a Kernel-Power Event 41 critical issue. I will be just chilling on my computer web browsing or playing a game, doesn't matter. My screen will go black my graphics card fan speed will fix max, the temps are fine. I can still talk to people on discord when this happens so I know my computer is working. The graphics card just crashes.

Here is the error below. It doesn't say anything for me but does it help anyone here. ?
 
 
Plz let me know soon. !!!

The Kernel Power error just means that the computer turned off unexpectedly (not properly shut down). Since you are the one who is turning it off, I would say that doesn't necessarily mean that it is a power supply issue and you can ignore the Kernel Power error message.

You said that the screen goes black, the graphics card fan ramps up to maximum, and you can still hear sound coming from your speaker/headphones.

I would recommend that you perform some debugging. I recommend that you do a thorough video card driver cleaning and re-install. I recommend that you do no use Precision, Afterburner, or any other overclocking/monitoring tool for troubleshooting purposes. I recommend that you reset any of your overclocks to stock settings. And if still the issue doesn't subside, try underclocking your video card to see if the issue goes away; if it does, the video card is likely faulty.

What is the make/model/age of your psu?

Thank you for replying Sajin,

I don't know the model but it was a Themeral Take 1200W Gold PSU it was over 7 years old.

I replaced it today with an EVGA 850W PSU.
 
Thanks again for the reply.

So Update Time, 

I installed PSU and Ups, Everything runs fine for a couple of days, I really don't do any gaming during this time. Classic wow comes out, and I game for 9 hours. Crashed Hour 7. The game was still playing I was still able to talk to my friends on discord, but I had to restart the computer to get the display back on and relaunch wow.
 
What I have done now is... I have Moved my GPU to Expansion slot #2 and I have moved the ram also. 

Installing New Driver 436.02

I hope this fixes it !!
 
Cheers !

Did the fans go to max on the gpu again?

The Fans did not go to Max, which was strange

Good. That means your power issue is fixed. Do you have problems in any other games? No more issues when browsing the web?

So Far I have only played wow and that is the only game that is making it crash, and I have not crashed when browsing the web. 

I will keep you guys posted when I have more info !!
 
Thank you for your help so far.
