Specs: Asrock A87; Intel i7-4770k 3.5Ghz; Asus GeForce GTX 770; 8g of RAM; Windows 8
Hello. I built my friend's PC about a month back. When we built it, it was a beast, running dual monitors, 1920 x 1080 on one screen and 1440 x 900 on the other. However, about a week ago, he has been having problems with the computer freaking out "http://imgur.com/a/rYmAt" We have tried reinstalling drivers, switching PCI slots, we are about to try a clean install of Windows 8 again, but it just does that or black screens out of the blue. No indication. Just blank and the only thing we can do is a hard reset. If anyone can help, it is greatly appreciated.
Update: After switching PCIe slots, it still black screened.
After checking some more posts, it seems that PSU matters quite a bit. We have a Rosewill HIVE 650W installed
We did a clean install and it seems to be working. I will update when my friend tells me anything more, but I am hopeful.
Welp. It crashed again. Would the PSU not have enough wattage to supply the GPU?
