Hi all, I'm currently experiencing total power loss on my tower randomly, at least once a day. It isn't a shut down, and there is no warning, it just dies, as though someone pulled the plug from the wall. It has run perfectly well for nearly 3 years, aside from some stability issues I had while overclocking in the very beginning (it is no longer overclocked.) Here are my specs:
Win7 Pro
Corsair 800D Full Tower
Intel i7-950 (stock clock, Noctua NH-D14 air cooler)
Asus Sabretooth X58
6GB Corsair Dominator DDR3-1333
PNY Xler8or nVidia GTX580 (Reference card, Stock Clock)
Corsair HX850 850W Modular PSU
Intel X25-M 80GB SSD (system drive)
Intel 320 160GB SSD (performance storage, e.g. games)
Seagate 1.5TB External (mass storage/back-up)
3X Scythe S-Flex 120mm internal fans (set to negative pressure)
Toshiba-Samsung 48x Supermulti optical drive
All plugged into a surge protector (no wall sockets close enough to plug into), nothing else loses power other than the tower, and I've tried multiple sockets and reseated the PSU connections inside. I don't have another PSU to test with, and I'm curious if this is likely a PSU issue or a motherboard issue.
Thanks for any help!
