i did a post a yesterday saying my dad bought a radion 3850 an he had a 450W PSU an it would restart his computer every time he opend a game so he went out an bought a 750W PSU 2day an we still have the same problem PLEASE HELP
IT IS VERY ANOYING
As you've already ruled out a power issue I'd first check the CPU temperature immediately after the restart via the BIOS.
If that was fine then I'd be thinking driver problem maybe?

Well, you know being more specific would help. Define "a game", does this mean you have tried multiple games and every single one does the same thing? If you have tried many games it's dobtful it's a driver issue. If you only tried 1 game or games that are really simular it could be drivers. After we know weather it's a software or hardware issue it should be easier to help.

Was the 650W power supply included with the case? And do you have a link? Sounds like a unsufficient PSU.

Yes No
His post said that his dad had a 450w and thinking it was at fault replaced it with a new 750w.
