I'm having an issue with my power supply... according to my ASUS "anti surge protection"
I decide to play a game and suddenly my PC reboots, claiming that there was a power surge and that the PSU is unstable. After doing this 3 times, I still encounter the "protection system." I find this claim that my PSU is unstable hard to believe because I only use 215~350W (pic related) out of a 500W PSU
Should I disable this protection thing? I've lurked through this issue on other sites and it appears to be just a meme this with asus mobos. /r/ some confirmation to if this really is some meme shit going on or I should get a new PSU
My PSU is a Thermaltake TR2 500W ATX. I got it on sale for 20$
Added note: the 350W idea came from after using multiple calculators. The highest I have been given was 350W

I think the issue at hand might be that 750Ti can spike above the allowed power draw from PCI-E slot. It's a common occurence.
That motherboard is way overkill for this build, by the way.

Had a similar problem; I just turned it off in the BIOS settings.

Is it? It was a combo deal with the CPU for 230$
