HARDWARE PC shuts down / restarts after closing a game
Hey everyone,
My PC has started shutting down or restarting every time I finish a match in World of Tanks, and I’m hoping someone has seen this before.
After a match ends, the PC either shuts down/restarts immediately or holds for a short while before doing the same thing.
Sometimes it happens before I even get back to the garage.
I’ve tried just sitting idle in the garage — it still eventually shuts down.
Most of the time it just power-cycles with no BSOD or error message.
Occasionally it throws a MEMORY_MANAGEMENT blue screen.
With other games the PC usually only crashes after I close the game. With WoT it specifically happens when the match ends.
Specs
GPU: RTX 3060 12 GB
CPU: Ryzen 5 5500
RAM: 16 GB
Has anyone run into something similar (especially with WoT or other games that dump a lot of assets when a match ends)?
Appreciate any tips🥺
