Alas, I only have one PCIE 16x slot. The GPU already has 2 6 pins connected and the mobo also has a 6 pin connected. It can't be ruled out that it's the GPU but I'm leaning towards the PSU being the problem cos it's some generic piece of shit.

Well.......... Prime 95 runs no problem, but FurMark causes the same problem almost immediately....which is slighty worrying. However, I can run other tools like MSI Kombustor no problem.

GPU is GTX570 PSU is some generic POS 750w. The GPU should use any more power once it's at 100% load. It should just lower the FPS. The event viewer shows ID 41, Kernel-Power. I've ran test on all the normal causes of that and like I said, it only happens in ARMA 3. I've ran other games for hours without a single problem. I haven't entirely ruled out that it's the PSU but it doesn't make any sense >.<

So, I recently came across a pretty serious problem whilst playing Arma 3 with friends. I can fire the RPG no problem without the scope/sights, but as soon as I use it with the scope......my PC immediately powers off. This happens with no other game. I can play Arma 2 for hours on end or Arma 3 WITHOUT the RPG with no problems at all. I've ran stress tests on all parts of my machine for long periods of time with no problem. This really has me baffled. Apologies for the video quality but, for obvious reasons, I had to record it using my iPad. http://youtu.be/FRN1ImDgCuE
