Hello,

i tried to create a 3D Model of my Room ( 553 of 650 pictures aligned) each Pic with the size of 5152*3694 and about 6-8 Mb of size.
The aligning worked pretty well and i got a good and densce point cloud. After i try to create a mesh in preview or normal mode (no matter what) it will crash my PC after a while. Dosen't frezze, no bluescreen or error message, just restart. I dont know the problem. Too many meshes ? Too less RAM ? The programm works on smaller scans with less than 100 Pics. Whats my problem here? Thank you for your help.

My Systemspecs are:

Intel Skylake I7-6700K 8 Cores @4Ghz (no overclocking)
16 GB DDR4 RAM
NVidia 980Ti
Windows 10 Pro 64Bit
Intel SSD NVMe

  Hi Nikolas Roth
  
  What PSU you have there precisely mark + model + wattage ?
  Please use this calculator and put all devices in you PC there http://www.coolermaster.com/power-supply-calculator/

  Hi, thx for the reply..
  
  i have a "be Quit! Dark Power Pro" PSU. max combined wattage is 1000 W.
  
  With all my system specs, at this coolermaster calculator it tells me Load Wattage: 600 W and Recommended PSU Wattage: 650 W.
  
  i forgot to add in the first post: Mainboard is an ASUS Maximus VIII Extreme

  Hi Nikolas Roth
  go to the EVENT VIEWER in Windows and look for a CRITICAL EVENT. if it’s power event error 41, then it’s a PSU issue.

  Hi Nikolas Roth
  Take a look at the cabling, running just one 980Ti and I7-6700K should not crash the PC, if it does, then look for not good RAIL amperage to GPU or CPU, take a look at RAILS amperage and try to use different rails to connect them to the PSU.

  Yeah, this PSU has 2x30A rails and 2x45A rails. Make sure you're using the more powerful ones. Personally, i prefer PSUs with only one strong 12V rail.

  Hey all,
  
  I have had the similar problems but after long searching I have found something that worked for me.
  I'm guessing there's a good chance it will also do the trick for you!
  
  The problem of the crashes is most likely overheating of your CPU.
  This is because RC runs a heavy process and takes maximum capability of your processor.
  
  If your computer settings are set in a wrong way it will cause CPU overheating and crashes (because it can not handle the heavy demand)
  
  Go to your POWER SETTINGS and change the POWER PLAN maximum state to 70-80% and the minimum state to 0%
  
  This will most likely do the trick and prevent RC from crashing in the future!
  Good luck!
