| Oct 29, 2016 at 9:27 | comment | added | Roman Simonyan | So, after testing for 1 hour with several identical PSUs, some of them restart the system and some not :( Quality issue? I have several different PSUs and all work good. Only some of these cheap ones restart the system. | |

| Oct 29, 2016 at 7:51 | comment | added | Roman Simonyan | Thank you, will try these. When I change the PSU to another, no drop and restart occur. That's why I concluded that the PSU is the cause. | |
