I was having power problems with my custom PC with a 600W PSU. So I upgraded to an EVGA 1000 watt PSU and for a while that worked great. About a month ago my system began spontaneously restarting whenever it had to work a little harder. I have looked at all sorts of power calculators and such and my hardware should not require anything close to 1000 watts. I got in touch with EVGA about doing a warranty replacement and they asked me in an email to troubleshoot other aspects of my system before I send the PSU to them.
I'm not sure exactly where to begin. When the system restarts it generates all sorts of error codes, most of which talk about kernels. Here they are:
7034, 41 46, 6008 ------ 41 and 46 seem to to be the critical power loss ones.
As I said before, the system ran perfectly for almost a year, then this just developed without any changes in hardware.
What else should I be looking into? I appreciate any tips!
Oh I also tried upgrading to win10 but it made the problem worse so I went back to win 8.1.
Here are my specs:
AMD FX 8320 8 Core Processor
8 GB RAM
GPU_ EVGA G Force 740
MB: Gigabyte AMD 970
1 SSD
2 HDs
1 DVDRom
