Well im pretty sure my motherboard is toast. Ive swapped out hd / power supply / ram etc etc and the machine keeps randomly losing power and turning off. even plugged directly into the wall instead of power strip. Anyone have any other ideas for what could be wrong? cpu is averaging 35c so not over heating.


If not im currently using a i5-2500k cpu, if I need a new mobo do you ùthink it would be worth upgrading thr chip? I have not stayed up to date with the latest cpu's and would be willing to spend around 400$ max for a mobo cpu combo if worth it. Im running 2hd6950s in crossfire as well. Whats your guys opinions?
