Here is my Build:
AMD FX 8350 8 Core CPU
16G DD3 Corsair Vengeance Ram ( not sure the speed )
Saberthooth 990FX R2.0 Motherboard
WD HDD 1T
EVGA GTX 970 SC
XTremeGear 850 Watt Power Supply
So, lately I've been playing games that are a bit high on the graphic side. BF4, The Witcher 3, but I first noticed my problem playing H1Z1. I was running through a city and a Car had exploded in from of me and it caused my sound to lock up, then all 3 of my Monitors shut down, followed by my Keyboard and then mouse. No BSOD, just black. My reset switch doesn't work, even hard shut down didn't. The only thing that let me use my computer again was to go and unplug the psu cable, flick the switch and then turn it back on. I thought it was over heating, so I bough a new Liquid cooling system, new fans an a case. Nothing, same thing kept happening in these games. I read on here it could be a bad PSU, so a friend of mine who had just done a rebuild and gave me his old power supply, which now that I am writing it out, makes me wonder if thats the problem. ( Shitty psu's)
The Psu he gave me was the XtremeGear 850 watt and from what I read its shit. I also though that maybe my GPU is faulty, but its less than a year old and seems to work fine?
Im not really sure what to do here, any suggestions ?
