Hello everyone.
I have following components in my rig
Intel i5 2500K @ 4.2 GHz, CM Hyper 212 Plus w/ dual fan (2 years old running at stock voltage)
Patriot Viper Xtreme Division 2 2133mhz DDR3 (2x4GB) (2 years old)
MSI GTX 770 TF 4GB (3 months old)
Gigabyte P67A-UD4-B3 (2 years old)
Samsung 840 SSD, WD Caviar Black 1TB, WD Caviar Blue 750GB, WD Caviar Green 1TB (SSD bought year ago never used till 2 months ago, SATA disks about 2-3 years old)
Samsung Syncmaster 204B (ummm... 5+ years old)
Recom Powerstation EVO case, SILVERSTONE Strider Plus ST85F-P 850W (2 years old)
Rig worked flawlessly till this morning. No overheat, CPU goes in idle to like 38 degrees, under prime 70 or so). MSI did few runs of 3dmark, no issues no hickups no hangs.
Last night, I was playing a bit nothing too fancy, South Park, Star Wars: The Old Republic...
Done with playing, shut down PC and went to bed.
When I got up this morning, noticed that Sammy shows "Check signal cable" message, boot it up, it gave post beep as usual, but it didnt turned on the monitor. Switched off and on again monitor, same message. Shut down the PC, on button (no really idea if it went all the way to Win since had no pic). And jiggled a bit DVI cable in monitor and Gfx. And it booted up with picture.
Now, my question, how high chance is that Sammy is going to the point where it will die? What are the chances that simply DVI cable is messed up? What are the chances (God forbid, knocks on the wood) that something else is messing the things up?
Thanks in advance
