Hi everyone,
First of all I appreciate anyone who can give me a hand. My build is as follows (I've added to it a bit over the past year and a half):
Asus P8Z68-V Pro/Gen 3 Motherboard
Intel i7-2600k CPU
Corsair Force GT 120 GB SSD
2 EVGA GeForce GTX 550 Ti 1024 MB Graphics Cards
Seagate Barracuda Green 2TB HDD
16 GB Corsair Vengeance RAM
Samsung Blu-Ray Drive
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus
Bitfenix Recon Fan Controller
Corsair Carbide 500r
Corsair GS 700W PSU
In the case I've also replaced the 2 front stock fans, the exhaust fan and the stock fan that came with the heatsink so within the case I have 7 Aerocool Shark 120mm fans. (5 are controlled by the fan controller, the exhaust is connected to the motherboard and the heatsink fan utilizes a CPU fan pin on the motherboard even though it's a three pin)
About a month ago while I was playing Tomb Raider I started experiencing some power surges so I RMA'd my power supply. Corsair sent me a brand new PSU and everything worked fine until last week when my game shut off unexpectedly while playing Skyrim for a couple hours. When I tried to turn it back on the fans would spin but it would shut off after a few seconds and repeat. I opened up the case and replugged some of the cables in and I was able to get it started up again however when I went to shut it down the fans would keep spinning even after Windows shut down so I had to hold the power button to shut it off. Last night while trying to play Team Fortress 2 my computer shut down unexpectedly a number of times (one time I even got a pink screen and I had to shut it down manually). I've checked voltages on my ram and all my temperatures and everything seems okay.
Now I'm wondering if I don't have enough wattage for the computer anymore? Before I go and invest $200 bucks in a new PSU I would appreciate some advice!
