Problem with my pc

Apr 6, 2017 7:16AM PDT

Lately I bought a new gpu, I had to buy a new pc case because my gpu couldn't fit so I needed to rebuild it. I had some problem lately, when I am installing a game my pc shuts down for no reason no error code, but sometimes there comes on my screen "power saving mode" and than i cant turn off my computer I need to unplug my power supply cable. I already installed a new system ( Windows Cool, so my pc is clean.

PC case : Sharkoon s25-w (3 fans 120mm)
Motherboard : MS-7641 ver 3.0
GPU : GTX 970
PCU : AMD FX(tm)-6100-Six-Core
Power Supply : Corsair CX 750
8 GB RAM
(I dont have any driver installation CD's. Only for the GPU)

As to driver CDs

Given how fast the market moves, why is this a concern that I can download them?

I know folk new to building are upset at this change as well as new PC buyers that have to make their own restore media.

-> IOW, go get those drivers installed. Make sure the BIOS is current or else you will have troubles.
