Build
Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 Rev 4.0
FX8320(stock) with CM Hyper 212 EVO
Kingston Hyperx ram 1600 8GB(2x4)
Crossfire HD7870
Corsair HX750

2x1TB WD Black HDD
Antec 300 case
64 bit Windows 7 Ultimate
Those should be the parts that matter if any...anyway...
My PC has been shutting off randomly, when I use it...when I don't use it. Also I get really annoying micro stutters that make gaming nearly impossible. RadeonPRO helps a bit but the stutter is still there. Anyway, the PC just shuts off randomly at times. Just a few minutes ago, it shut off and wouldn't turn off. When I press the power button, my LEDs light up for a second, maybe less, and then just power off. I waited a bit and and tried to turn it back on which works most of the time...but this time it didn't. So I decided to remove one of the 7870s and left one in and now it works fine, and the micro stutter is gone, thank goodness...though micro stutter is caused by using two or more cards I know. Anyway, I've read up on forums and some say it's the PSU and to not use a cheap PSU....hence why I bought the HX750. Is it really the PSU being faulty or what else can be the cause. I've had the PSU and card for about 5 months.
Forgot to add, I don't know the exact temps the components were at but from previous tests, the temps have always been about average or slightly higher compared to what people consider to be normal. So I don't believe it to be a heating issue.
Info though on the PC temps with a single 7870.
