Hi, I'm sorta new here, and i want to ask a question.
So recently I built my first desktop, and i was pretty proud of it, until my first crash.

So specs as it goes.
RaidMax case +500 Watt power supply Unit
AMD AM3 Plus series 82XX 3.5 ghz
MSI AMD® 760G+SB710 Chipset
MSI Nvidia GTX 650 TI
4gb ram (I didnt really pick this one)

Now when I run games like Dota, or League of legends, after the character selectionish menu, the screen will go black, and i have to hit the rocker in the back to fix it. I cant enter ingame, unless by what i would assume is luck.

Games like BF3, FarCry3, Crysis3, KillingFloor, have no issues whatsoever (except for when I close the game...)

If anyone has some insight on this issue, PLEASE tell me whats wrong.
 
That is a terrible psu. You should never use any psu from Raidmax. Since you just bought it can you return it but keep that case? If not you should just return the case/psu and buy different ones. Stick to Corsair, Seasonic, Antec, PCP&C, and XFX for power supplies.

I fixed my issue today. I went to the place where I bought my cpu, and accused the chip of being faulty. They gave me a new one on the spot, and what do you know, the new chip worked like a charm. I no-longer black screen
