hey everyone!
im on here because my computer freezes almost every hour on the hour when i have 2 GPUs installed, with 1, its tolerable maybe 3 or 4 hours as long as im not gaming. i just bought this computer from a buddy who was too lazy to trouble shoot the issue, so i figured id take the risk, its about a year and a half old Alienware aurora R3 (spec below)
so ive downloaded "CPUID HWMonitor". the numbers look a litte off from what ive seen, ill post it here.
system specs:
crossfire radeon hd 5870s (doesnt freeze up computer as often with only 1 5870 installed)
i7 2600k 3.4Ghz.
aurora R3 alienware motherboard, not sure on which one that is.
6Gb ram 1600Mhz.
850w psu.
specs for CPUID HWMonitor.
+3.3V reads Value=3.296 min=3.248 Max=3.312
CPU CORE reads Value=1.368 Min=1.362 Max=1.276
Vin2 reads Value2.304 Min=1.282 Max=2.320
Vin3 reads Value=1.294 Min=1.282 Max=1.305
+5V reads Value+3.784 Min=3.742 Max=3.868
+12v reads Value 16.192 Min=14.872 Max 16.192
Vin6 reads Value=3.472 Min=3.424 Max=3.488
VSB3V reads Value=3.296 Min=3.248 Max=3.312
VBAT reads Value=3.264 Min3.232 Max=3.280.
Temps for that are (idle)
TMPIN0 reads Value 107 F
TMPIN1 reads Value 91 F
any help at all with anyone who knows how to read psu voltages would be great, the big one i saw was the 12v bus was really high, im not an expert on PSUs so thats why im here. thanks for the help!
ive also been told it might be a mother board issue? any input on that would be helpful too! thanks!
