Hello friends,
About a month ago My PC Shut off while playing An MMO And would not turn back on for about 30 minutes. When I was able to turn it back on It would only stay on for around 5-10 minutes regardless of what I was doing on it as well as this annoying screeching sound coming from the PC. I was able to figure out by monitoring My temps that my CPU was overheating, so I had to wait until about 3 days ago to buy a new Heatsink for the CPU. Now my PC will stay on for 7-8 hours if I am only using the internet, If I run any type or game/program for more than 5 minutes the PC shuts off completely. I still have the screeching sound but I can not tell if it is coming from my GPU or PSU Nor do I know if this would cause a shut down only while running games/programs. I have been Monitoring my temps and nothing goes above 45C.
Specs:
OS: windows 7 64 bit
CPU: AMD FX-8320 Eight Core
GPU: Radeon HD 7850 2GB 256-bit
PSU: Thermaltake TR2 500W
Memory: G.SKILL Sniper 8GB 240-pin
Motherboard: ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 AM3+
Thank you,
Joshua
