Hi there,
I own an EVGA 400W Power Supply for my HTPC: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438015
My specs are:
AMD Athlon X4 845
F2A88XN-WIFI Motherboard with Latest Bios
AMD Radeon RX 460
1333 Mhz DDR3 RAM
I used to own an Athlon X2 370K and had a GT 730 paired to it. I never had any problems with games crashing or trouble with dual monitor setups. Lately I decided to upgrade the graphics card. I got an RX 470 at first but both my monitors would turn on and off non stop, one screen then another; to the point were both screens would just stay off while the system is still running. I reinstalled the drivers over and over again using DDU. I also used AMD's newer drivers later on but nothing fixed the problem, so I returned the card thinking it was faulty.
I then decided to buy an RX 460 because of the lower power consumption and use the rest of the credit for an Athlon X4 845. Same problem with the dual monitor setup. Now I am thinking if it's the power supply that's causing me the problem. I have been getting crashes in Star Wars Battlefront, World of Tanks and Fallout 4, with the "driver has stopped" warnings and everything.
My case is cramped with all the cables of this non modular case so I am willing to replace it, but I don't want to buy a power supply if I don't need to. What do you guys think it is?
Thanks
