3D Vision Crash In 3D during play Comp crashes
  2 / 2    
I remember I used to have a computer and during gaming, it would reboot itself or shut down. Turned out to be a power supply issue. Had enough watts, but not enough amps on the rail connecting to the gpu (something like that). Anyways changed my PSU and pc never shut down again on its own accord.

Power supply is the most likely culprit, what sort of PSU do you have?

Don't remember the name, but it's a 1000W Power supply...
Not very likely... or yes?

It's unfortunately not just about Watts, you need to take into account the number of 12V rails and the current draw on each rail.
You should certainly be able to run a 480 with a 1000W PSU, but if your PSU has multiple 12V rails, you need to make sure it's connected to the right lines.
If you can take a picture of the side of the PSU it'll have a sticker with the breakdown of rails and current they can each supply.
