So for the past 2 plus months my PC have been crashing into a random colored screen with stripes everytime i play a game
The time of the crash can vary a lot
Sometimes the game can crash after 5mins,or maximum after 15mins
The crash color is grey screen with stripes,or dark green screen with stripes or some other color
Oh and sometimes when i play Project CARS and when the screen turns into these striped screen i can HEAR THE GAME SOUNDS,the slowing down of the car and the car crashing the wall even
But usually the whole game crashes too
(i tried everything possible from resetting BIOS,cleaning the card,reapplying paste,uninstalling and reinstalling new drivers,deattaching all cables and attaching them back and nothing worked)
Sometimes(very rarely)like once or twice a month,sometimes the pc crashes into these colored screen when i was just browsing facebook which led me and some others to believe its the PSU
I really doubt its my graphics card because this is a new MSI R9 280X which is barely 6 months old and i never over clocked it either
Do u think the PSU can really cause these crashes??
My PSU is a Coolermaster G600
I made several threads and all of them said thats a very bad PSU
What do u guys think?
My PC specs:
AMD FX 8300
8GB RAM
AMD MSI R9 280X 3GB
Win 8 64bit
Coolermaster G600W PSU(its around 1+ years old now)
