So I've had my (self-built) computer for a while now, and since the beginning my top panel hasn't worked, which include 2 USB 2.0, 2 USB 3.0, an audio and mic jack. (search NZXT Phantom 410 for a better idea of how that's layed out). That wasn't a huge problem because I have (or had) 6 USB's on the back and i have a USB headset so I don't really need the audio and mic jacks. But recently, I've only been able to have 4 plugged in, and if I plugged in a 5th it would make all the other ones turn on and off, and would become almost unusable. Again, a setback but I didn't think much of it because this was my first build and I was bound to get something wrong. The worst thing is, for (I would say) the past 3 or 4 months, my computer has this weird way of crashing (which I believe is related to the USBs). My USB's will stop working even if I try to unplug and replug them in, so I'll have to restart and then they're fine again, until it happens again. This happens maybe twice a day, if I'm using the computer for maybe 3 or 4 hours. Any ideas on how to fix these few problems? the only thing I can think of is a power issue.
(Note: my wifi will cut out also when the crash happens because I use an external wifi card thing from Linksy)
Specs:
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UP4TH
Graphics Card: Nvidia GTX-660
RAM: 8GB DDR3
Power supply: Corsair GS600
Processor: Intel i5 (running at 3 GHZ)
I can provide any other info if needed, thanks!
