So I just recently started getting random black screens while playing games.
It usually works for sometimes but then out of no where it just randomly turns black. I can hear some sounds, but its just a loop of the back round music, and it doesn't sound like it progresses much, but no new sounds appear , just the back round music
If I underclock the gpu, it appears that it does not happen
I checked the windows event log, and no errors appear besides shutting down unexpectedly
It hasn't really occured before I added my watercooling loop though. I don't know if its a coincidence, or if the fans and pump added just enough to put it over the top
I have noticed though that the power supply emits much warmer air than before I added the loop
I have an Antec 650w earthwatts
It has two 12v rails at 38 amps each
Some more system specs
i5-2400 @3.6 GHz
EVGA 570 HD superclocked edition
Asus Xonar DG
TP-Link Wireless adapter
Laing DDC-1T
1 Gentle Typhoon AP-14
2 Noctua NF-P12
1 Yate Loon D12SL-12
The above fans shouldn't be undervolted
2 NZXT 120mm case fan
1 NZXT 140mm case fan
I'm not sure if there is anything more that I should list, but the rest should be in the Sig Rig
Some one said that it could be something with the two rails, and one rail supporting too many things, or being mis wired or something of that sort
I tried using that PSU calculator, and it says I need about 600 ish watts, so I dont know if I really need a new one or not
But if I am in the market for a new PSU, what is the brand that everyone generally likes?
I heard that corsair makes really solid psus, but they have many different kinds, and I'm not sure which one is good
I had my eye on NZXT's hale 90 psus, mostly because it is white, and modular and has a gold 80+ rating
Speaking of ratings, I don't even know if its worth having a 750-850 watt at gold rating or if a bronze or silver rating will do
Thanks in advance!

I have liquid cooled my card in order to achieve the highest possible overclock, but the 570s are supposed to run cooler stock and therefore need less extreme cooling even when overclocked. Normally you can get a pretty decent overclock even on the stock cooler, but it will frequently make the fan spin faster.(louder) That's another reason I water cooled my card, because even at the stock 700 MHZ core speed the stock fan would get so loud!
