Hi guys, I recently built a pc and it hangs randomly every hour or so. I rma'd everything, except the cpu, because newegg doesn't let you rma a cpu, but with the new stuff it still randomly hangs. Can't render videos because of this at all, sucks!
So I'm thinking I got a defective CPU or maybe I scratched it! I dunno, but $250 down the drain! Sucks so much!
So my question is, what CPU can I get to replace or match the one I had, and that will fit into the mobo?
Also, second question. Could the hang ups be coming from a lower powersupply because of the upgraded GPU? I have either a 500 or 600 Watt power supply. Thanks!
