Kernal power event 41 (63) problem
Hello everyone,
I have a PC I built that I've used with many different graphics cards and it has performed flawlessly. It has used a Zotac 1080 mini, 1060, 960, and a 970.
The PC has a b stock EVGA W1 600 PSU that with all those previous graphics cards operated fine.
I recently got a 980ti from the EVGA midweek madness sale and I'm now getting this kernal power event shutdown error. The shutdown happens randomly when I will hop onto rocket league and the graphics card begins to draw power.
I've attempted to reinstall the graphics card a few times power connectors and all.
I checked my drive for errors and found none (it's an m.2 nvme drive)
I tried turning off fast startup.
I'm not too sure what else to try as all my drivers are also up to date. Is it simply that my PSU can't consistently send enough power that the Graphics card needs so then that error happens? I know it's a cheap/not good quality PSU so I'm betting it's this.
Interestingly enough it really only happens when I boot up a game at first and it doesn't always happen. For instance it happened twice back to back when I was trying to play rocket league and then i tried it a 3rd time last night and played for like 5 hours straight without issue.
The processor is a ryzen 5 1600 so it's not a power hungry processor.
Any help and info would be much appreciated.
I put my 970 back in and it works with 0 problems.
