Hi, Welcome to the forums!

Did the power cut out to the entire rig (ie it just switched off??) or did the audio cut out?

Does the problem repeat itself (ie have you tried playing COD @4K max settings & 5.1 audio)??

Thanks for replying.

The rig shut off completely and rebooted i was like what the.

I have not retried it in fear it will damage the rig.

Its entirely possible it could have been an isolated incident - have you used the rig since? If it has not happened again then its worth trying to play the game again to see if the problem re-occurs.

Alternatively, you should try some benchmarks etc (GPU, RAM and CPU - google can find suitable ones with ease :)) really just to stress the pc a bit and see if it reoccurs.

I have turned it on like usual for emails and so forth.

Not had the time to run it again.

I will report back later. Also what benchmark do you recommend on google.

Many thanks

I tried again this morning seemed to be fine

Turned down the megahurtz to 60 and 75 on cod.

Bought a surge protector.

Also ran 3d mark demo edition on it as well cant run 4k demo as its not free.

Thanks for your concern.
