I have a problem with my computer, it keeps shutting off when I play games like World of Warcraft. Why is it shutting off and how can I prevent this?
The first thing that comes to mind is overheating issues, a game like World of Warcraft can be intensive for some graphic cards which can cause heat issues and if that is the case then the computer will automatically shut down itself to avoid permanent damage. Here are some things you can try to prevent the computer from shutting down:
- Clean your computer, dust build up inside a computer will cause it overheat quicker
- Turn down the graphic settings
- Improve air circulation by adding another fan
- May also be a power supply issue, it may be underpowered
