If you're getting the power save message and have to force restart your computer, it might be the graphics card overheating. I had this problem and discovered there was a small fan built into the underside of my graphics card which was dirty.

Clean all of your fans and the inside of your computer.

I think you have an overheating problem which is either caused by dirt and dust, or possibly settings which need adjustment.

I guess was simply too much for my card I put to high instead than ultra and all runs smooth ...
