Hello everybody, I am having some weird problems with my PC as of late and I am only guessing it's my PSU failing. What happens is while my computer is on and doing anything from playing games to doing nothing just standing by it might crash. It does that in a way very strange: in some cases the PC might freeze and I cannot do anything other than take the power off (reset/power buttons aren't doing anything). Other times it might not boot up (pressing power button->powering up for a sec-> powering off -> powering up -> off-> on -> off by itself until I take the power off again power/reset buttons seem not to repsond). Other times nothing might happend and sit on it for hours play,work, leave it open, watch movies and it will power up and power off normally. Now from my personal experience with PCs, PC componentes aren't half broken or half fried, they either work or don't. And since my PC has it's "days" of working or not my only guess is the PSU is failing. Having said that I also need to say that the PSU is the only component left on this system from my old system which I assembled back in 2008. Now I might be wrong assuming that my PSU has left us days but that's why I am asking of what do people think about this problem. The PSU itself is a Coolermaster G850M. My specs are:
Intel i7-3770 3.40ghz
Asus P8H77-ve
Asus Geforce Gtx970 Strix
4x 4gb Corsair Vengaence DDR3 1600mghz ram
SSD Sandisk 64gb
and two other HDs I am using only for storage
Now if the PSU is the problem I need to buy a new one The one I am having right now is a bit of overkill in terms of power output but back in the day I designed the computer to have an SLI of 2x9800GX2 I don't really believe I need that big of a power supply so I am thinking something in terms of 600-650W I don't know.
Please let me know what do you think my problem is and if you agree it's the PSU which one would you suggest?
