Hello! We aren't aware of any game issues that could cause a PC to restart, however I will do my best to help you.

A restarting PC can be a sign of the following -

- Components attempting to draw too much power
- A faulty Power Supply Unity (PSU)
- A faulty motherboard

I'd like to ask the following -

- Are any PC components new?
- Have you played any other games that put pressure on your components? If not, maybe that's why you've only noticed this issue in Siege.


I recommend double checking with a power usage calculator, to make sure 700W is enough for your system. Also, consider if any components are old and could be faulty.

Thank you!

Thanks for getting back to me.

There are no in-game tools for this, however you could use something such an overlay diagnostic tool such as MSI Afterburner. It has an overlay that can show you component usage and thermals.

Once a component gets too hot it should just lower in performance (thermal throttle). Still, it's best we take everything into consideration.

If this is a brand new build, double check internal connections to make sure everything is fitted correctly. A loose ATX cable between the PSU and motherboard can shut everything down.

This is certainly a strange once, but I'm confident we'll figure it out!

Updating bios seems to have fixed the problem. I was able to finish three games without reboot so far. Hopefully it can help you too.

Thanks for the update Rikisaurus and I'm very glad to hear that!

Hopefully whoever runs into this problem will find these steps useful.

In the meantime, I wish you a very Happy New Year and if there's anything that we can help you with in the future, feel free to reach out at any time!
