Running an incredibly demanding (for a game) program on 10-year-old tech and wondering why you're having meltdowns? You can probably chalk this up to the probable age of your system as much as you can to the poorly coded game.

Damn, tough break to put you on hiatus. Start up a fundly or something and get your outfit to pitch in on getting you new hardware!
Just one question: the motherboard of that machine, is it possibly a Gigabyte board with an older BIOS? Those allegedly have serious power issues until the more recent BIOS is put in.

@ Neuro, thanks for the concern but I'm not here to impose, that's the last thing I want to do. I'll use my exile from the game to barter some decent used components eventually instead .. I can be a fairly meticulous artist and I know lots of people who'd jump at an offer like that. My main purpose again was only to warn others about just how needlessly demanding this engine can be, and hope that someone from my outfit saw it. I guess they didn't, aw well, thx anyway PSU. Keep fighting the good fight and don't spend so much time on Indar, the other Conts need love too |

Moving bits around will never cause your hardware to smoke unless its a power issue. You happened to be running planetside2, but it could have been any other application that triggered the power draw to cause your bargain basement PSU to give up the ghost and release its magic smoke. Next time choose systems or components that have longer warranties or better reputations. Don't blame SoE when the issue is yours.
