i would agree with the PSU, ive had issues in the past where the GFX card power drop below the threshold and would simply power off the PC

yeah, i forgot to mention i have Acronis backup on an external drive backing up weekly so can recover.

i'd look to get a i5-12400F and motherboard to suit rather 2 gen old 10 series

I have just replaced my i5-8500, Z370 board and 2666mhz ram over to a 12500, Z690 board and 3600mhz ram and had no issues. (i didnt reinstall windows for several years and hardware changes) i just had to reactivate windows 10

Whilst i agree the 650w psu is a good purchase for the future, when i upgrade my gfx card to the 3060ti i didnt need to upgrade the 500w im running .

You really need to look on websites like this (not sure of any french sites but most UK site look like the deliver to the EU - Gaming PC's

if you dont want to build one, then you need to look at places like Scan, PCspecialists, DinoPC websites who build them using parts that will allow changes and upgrades in the future

i suspect its your PSU not supplying enough power on the rails when asked, pcpartpicker can give you an insite to power usage if you pick your parts

the main issue you'll have with a self buid is getting the parts, especially the GFX card, might be better off checking several websites for the best pre built one cost wise

you need to provide details on the current motherboard to answer this question?

two things spring to mind, i recently upgraded from a GTX 1060 to a RTX 3060ti, all my games when they run have detected the change and amended the settings to reflect the new card, this could account for the low fps. the other could be the driver, did you remove the old one and install a new one?

i wouldn't waste my money on this, 7 generations old, ddr3, no graphics card and a 350w psu. you could game unless you buy a dedicated graphics card, you would be better looking for a newer PC or building yourself

sorry, mis read it and thought you were looking to get it :)

needs a bigger power supply, think the minimum is 650w for a 3070

dual 2080's.... Nvida have dropped this, so i personally would try for either a single to a newer 30xx card
