Problem Details:

Well, my PC have a problem with games with High level of shaders e etc, like GTA V, Assasin's Creed Unity, The Sims 3, Assasin's Creed III (Ultra) and others in same level.
My PC restart when get a overflow of perfomance (The real motive i don't know).
The problem is, Osu should not have this problem, since today or yersteday something changed in osu and this problem appears.

Osu only have this problem before when FPS is unlimited and i spectate replays, in 2, 3 replays, Boom!
When i use Unlimited FPS (Only in Game) this problem are resolved, because when it in 120 FPS in replay mode this problem never happen.
But Now i play 2 ~ 5 songs and Boom! (unlimited or 240 FPS, 120 FPS) this never happen before.

Then i look the changelog and see this:

UI: [Tom94] Make volume control text update at the actual frame rate rather than at 60fps.
UI: [Tom94] Make score displays update at the actual frame rate rather than at 60fps and decouple update logic from drawing logic.
UI: [Tom94] Make FPS display update at actual frame rate rather than fixed 60 times a second.

I think some of these "fix" is giving problem in perfomance.

osu! version: 20150410.2beta

Your post says you play on the osu! beta version. That version doesn't even contain any new features from the recent past, which means something at your end changed which caused your PC to crash more easily now. This could be additional dust settling inside your PC, your CPU / GPU degrading over time due to high temperatures or ambient temperatures rising.

What you are describing sounds like your PC is overheating or the clock at which your CPU or GPU runs at is unstable. I suggest cleaning your PC from dust to increase airflow and underclocking your CPU / GPU if that doesn't help. If you don't know how to do any of this I'm afraid you'll have to reduce the frame limiter to a lower number until you can run osu! more stable again.

Those changes that you mention are implemented on Cutting Edge, not in Beta, so, that's not the reason of the problem.

If you PC is restarting when it's running at high performance, it's probably because overheating or unstable clocks. You should check that. If it's not that, maybe you have a defective component on your PC, because it's not normal for a PC to restart like that.

And as Tom mentioned, if you can't fix it, I guess you should play with FPS limiter, since the performance required is smaller.

No offence but I have no idea what you just said.

Do you mean your PC shuts down/crashes/reboots when it's been running some intensive games for a little while?

I guess he is saying that. At least that's what I understood.

Sorry guys, my english is terrible, i fixed the problem using the cutting edge version.

Yes.

Sounds like overheating to me. Clean the dust out of your PC's fans and heatsinks. (CPU & GPU area more specifically.)

Ok, the Cutting Edge is worse.

Cutting-Edge in Unlimited FPS (In game) (1600~2300 FPS) shutdown my PC in 5 seconds in game, but 240 FPS works fine.

I will try the stable version.

About the problem, my PC not have problems with Temp or Cooling, the problem is the Power Supply, Probably a capacitor.
Trosk-
Yes.. I can't think about any other issue than overheating or unstable CPU or GPU clocks... Check the temperatures with an app like this one and tell us your PC temperatures while playing/running at high performance.

Edit:

Well, if you have problems with your PSU, I don't know if we can help much more. Try to don't carry your PC to high loads until you can fix your PSU problem. 240fps should be fine to play.
Tom94
Well, 240 FPS should be enough to properly play the game, though. ;)

Exist a way to edit the limit FPS? To 500 FPS for example?

Open the osu!.<username>.cfg file found in the installation directory with any text editor (such as wordpad) and change the CustomFrameLimit = <value> line to the framerate you want it to be capped at. This will replace the 240fps limit by whatever limit you set in the cfg file.

I don't think so.

Really? Then I typed something wrong.

Edit: Not working for me, are you sure it is correct?

NVM, I'm retarded. Facepalm.

Stable version unlimited FPS is fine, about the temp:

Osu normal not playing in 120 FPS


Osu Unlimited FPS (1500~2500)



For now the stable version in unlimited don't shutdown my PC, i will continue playing to test.
But the unlimited FPS in cutting edge is extreme ridiculous, shutdown in 5 seconds its like GTA V or Assasin's Creed Unity running and it's Osu for god sake.

Your fans' RPM look pretty low to me. Temps are a bit high but they differ per rig.
VeilStar
52°C under load? I guess you live on the north pole or something.

Anyhow, I'm not sure what to say, really. If it's not overheating nor a power delivery issue then I guess it's software based.
Grab the crash log in the event viewer and post it here, as it might contain some useful information.

iHatePeople, the test versions (cuttingedge and beta) are heavily optimized compared to stable. Especially at unlimited FPS they put a way higher strain on your graphics card which explains that those are also more likely to crash. Could you try setting your custom framelimiter to 1000 fps as VeilStar described in his post above and see if that works on cuttingedge? I'd also be curious which is the maximum FPS it can hold without crashing.

I think they are nice actually.

Well, the temperatures seems fine. I guess it's up to the PSU issue you mentioned before. (I'm not gonna say anything but... are you sure your GPU is not defective? I had this type of problem 2 years ago with an AMD 7870.)

And do what Tom just said please, it would be interesting.

Ok, i will test it, the stable version is work fine, no crashs \o/

The fact of your PC crashing on Cutting Edge and not on Stable is wierd...
And well, if you are gonna use Stable release stream, make sure to use DirectX renderer, not OpenGL.
