System Specs:
PSU: Logisys PS575XBK 575w
GPU: XFX HD 4850 1gb
CPU: E8400 (3.0ghz)
Board: PC Chips p41g
My Problem!
So, Long Ago i noticed a bit smell of something burning on my room, i scared out knowing was comming from my CPU and unplug it really fast!
When i tryed to turn it on again, the psu was powering all pieces but the system was not booting, i turn it off and on till it worked and since that day i need to Turn it off and on till it works everytime i need to use the pc!
i tought maybe PSU its semi dead and not delivering the needed power to power up system properly and i unplug my GPU, was not a surprise the system worked correctly and the problem came back when i plugged back my GPU!
So im almost sure this its a PSU Problem and i need to buy a new one so.
I Need Help with:
1- Could this be a GPU and not a PSU problem?
2- This Logisys PSU i have its good? it has a 12v rail with 25a and a 450w average and 575w max (I want to OC my CPU to 4.0ghz) [i know i need to upgrade board for it]
or will be better a 32a or 33a 12v rail PSU like:
32a Corsair CX430 (max 430w) if theres no significant diference between this 2 PSU ill rather this one, cuz i can buy it cheap and close to my place!
33a Corsair 450VX (max 450w)
As always, Sorry if my english its bad, i learn it by myself and i know its not good! Hope some people can help me with this!
