Hey guys, I'm reposting this thread due to almost no responses to it..Please help me
My system freezes when i play any game for a while..say 5-6 mins approx...when the freeze happens, the keyboard and mouse lights go off and they stop working, there is a very terrible static noise sound in the speakers/headphones like the static noise in old CRT TVs as they are being tuned..If i dont manually force shutdown the PC by the power button, it stays like that for a while and then shuts off itself..after that it gets stuck in a restart loop..it turns on for 2-3 seconds and even before anything appears on the display, it shuts off..again it turn on after 1-2 seconds and then again shuts off quickly..this happens around 10-15 times..no fixed number..then it finally boots up after this has happened a lot of times, and again if i play any game, it happens..earlier it was only happening with heavy games like bf3, bf4, call of duty ghosts, bioshock infinite, etc. It didnt used to happen with FIFA 14 until 2-3 days back when after 2-3 hrs of continuous gameplay, the same problem occurred.. and now, it happens very quickly in FIFA too like it did in those heavy games.. I have this PC since more than an year and never faced any such issue before with any of the games until one day when i decided to clean up my cabinet from inside..i was just brushing off dust like i always do once in 2-3 weeks..since then, this problem started happening all off a sudden..
I've got my motherboard, GPU, PSU, and both RAM sticks replaced under RMA one by one.. PSU came brand new..I had given the processor for RMA as well but intel sent it back as it is saying that it isnt faulty.. ive also tried applying a better thermal paste- Deepcool z9 in case if it was over heating..but still the problem remains..i have the stock intel cooler and its plastic body is cracked from two parts but its still working..I observed these cracks after it came from the service center.. My PC is just about 16 month old and iI didnt face any such issue with games running maxed out an year ago.. I also tried running memtest86+ and scanned my HDD for bad sectors using Seatools by Seagate and also with the 'chkdsk' command in command prompt. But the results found no errors anywhere. Also, I've monitored the CPU and GPU temps with many utilities- hiwinfo64, hardware monitor, MSI afterburner, and the CPU temps on idle are around 41-52 degrees and on load (WHILE GAMING) are 65-66 degrees celsius. GPU temps are also similar..on load they dont go beyond 66 degrees celsius. Im just insanely clueless..My specs are these:
CPU- Intel Core i3 3220 3.3 GHz
Motherboard- Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H
GPU- Gigabyte Geforce GTX 660 2GB OC GDDR5
PSU- Corsair CX500 (500 Watts)
RAM- 2x4GB GSkill RipjawsX DDR3 1600MHz = 8GB TOTAL
HDD- Seagate Barracuda 500GB
OS- WIndows 8.1 64-bit
A few weeks ago I was running windows 8 64 bit and was having the same problem.. I even tried installing windows 7 64 bit..but the problem was same with that too..
I've purchased a Cooler Master TX3 EVO cooler and the temps are better than before now, around 52 degrees C at load and 38-40 degrees on idle..
PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!! I'M SICK OF THIS PROBLEM SINCE 2 MONTHS !!!!
