Frequent post-patch crashes/reboots from game

[baffa]

I had to rearrange some fans and increase the rpm in my case to get rid of the excessive heat. My mainboard was at 70C, never seen that before
The only thing that had ok temps was my GPU even if it was pegged at 100% most of the time.

Everything is better now though, at least within teh limits.

I can recommend Corsair TX 650W PSU, 52A on +12V, more than enough for any single GPU setup.

So increased cooling helped the reboots?

So perhaps it's not the GPU overloading the PSU but the fans or the CPU heatsink I put in recently when o/c'ing the chip?

Either way, it seems the PSU cannot cope.

I'm looking at PSUs now, but I live in Spain and tend to use one shop for components, and they have Antec's (usually 4 x 12V rails @ about 20-25A each, which should do the trick, shouldn't it?).

Would prefer single rail like you have, but it's an availability issue.

Thanks again for the advice, baffa.
