Black screen reboots while playing games.

Reinhardt54 · May 26, 2016

Ok so recently i upgraded my gpu to a 970. Then i started getting black screen reboots so i figured it was my PSU so i got a brand new Corsair 750w. Then the black screens stopped for a few days now they are back and my motherboard is buzzing near the cpu socket. So im pretty certain this is a motherboard problem.

My specs
Mainboard: MSI 890FXA-GD70
CPU: AMD FX 8350
GPU: Asus strix GTX 970
Ram: 16gb Gskill sniper
PSU: Corsair 750w

I think there is something wrong with your HW Monitor from CPUID something like that.......

What?

Check drivers i think its not your motherboard,motherboard is probably fine.Drivers or unplug everything from motherboard try 1 by 1 and check where is prb.

As far as i know, that motherboard has really bad power delivery and it's only a 4+1 phase si it might just be it.
First of all, you should upgrade your bios to the latest version, seeing as the board is one generation behind.
If the problem persists try underclocking and undervolting the cpu.
Btw whitch corsair did you get?

I got the CX 750 also it probably doesn't help that the board is like 4-5 years old and its on pretty much all the time.

It doesn't. But before you sink any more money in that dead platform take the steps i suggested.
Very bad choice of PSU, btw. It's not excluded that it has something to do with it.

Im sure the CX is better than the apevia i had before.

Better? Yes. Good enough to not warrant checking the motherboard with another one if all else fails? No.

I dont have another PSU to test with. Changing from the old one to this one fixed the problem temporarily so i really have no idea.
