Sorry, but I am getting really fed up with this. Lately, my pc has randomly been crashing nonstop. I get Kernel Power Event 41 (63) error codes and BSoD's. I recently got a new motherboard the first week of November, it was fin for a week or so, and then the crashes started. I sent my motherboard in for an RMA, and got a new one back right after Christmas. Needless to say, it has only crashed on me once since, but crashes twice today, this time while playing games.
I've re-installed Windows, completely gutted my computer and cleaned it out. I know this is 99% a hardware problem but I just cant figure out what it is. This is infuriating beyond belief. All parts in my pc other than the mobo are less than 2 years old.
My PSU is an OCZ ZX850W, Motherboard is an ASRock Z77 Extreme6, CPU is i72600k @4.4GHZ, GPUs are 2x Nvidia GTX 680s, 8GB of 1333 RAM (2x4GB), and I have 2 1TB harddrives.
Any help will be incredibly appreciated. I hoe you can understand how irritating this is, knowing something is wrong, but you just can't find what it is.
