PC specs:
EVGA 500B 600W Bronze Certified powersupply
2x4GB DDR3 RAM http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231428
AMD FX 6300
1 AMD Sapphire HD 7850 w/ 2 GB of video RAM
1TB Hard Drive (SeaGate Barracuda)
msi 970A-G46 motherboard with the correct cpu socket
so i built my pc a couple months ago with a 480W power supply, and it kept on freezing after short periods of time and the only way to unfreeze was a manual shutdown, upon noticing it, i tested my ram, video card, and even ran my pc with the case open and a giant fan on it to prevent overheating of any sort. still none of this fixed the problem so i began messing around in the windows 8 settings, and found that my pc works fine with the power settings of power saver (which noticeably lowered my performance), but as soon as i set it on balanced or high performance, it does it still. Getting tired of the performance, i just bought my new powersupply to find that it still did not fix the problem!!!
Please help, it would be greatly appreciated!!!
