Hello Guys,

From few days my PC started getting restarted again and again randomly, After doing some research on web i found from many possible causes of restarting one is that of PSU when i checked CPU 4 pin plug got melted a bit from tip and left black burn mark on 4pin cpu socket of motherboard. From my previous post here i got answer that maybe my PSU can handle requirement of wattage by my pc but from Online PSU calculator i got result that i need 650w PSU which am already using CoolerMaster GXII 650w (new ver.). I checked HDD, CPU, GPU, RAM all working properly no overheating and non of my hardware are OC all are on factory settings.

My Spec are-

AMD FX 8120
Gigabyte 970A- DS3 (Ver 3.0)
Sapphire Vapor-X R9 290
2x 4GB Corsair Vengeance
2x 7.2 RPM HDD (2TB+ 80GB)
1x Optical Drive DVD/CDRW
1x Dell IN2030M 20'' Monitor
1x Thermaltake CPU Air Cooler
1x Standard Keyboard
1x Dragonwar Thor Gaming Mouse
1x 120mm Side Fan Red LED

So what u guys think 750w PSU will be the solution ? If yes which PSU will be the best ? Please recommend International PSU brand only (like corsair, CM, antec, seasonic, etc)

Thanks Guys

Looks like you've got some damage on one of the chokes too. So yes, definitely get a new PSU but that board might pop soon regardless. Check what unit is the best value for you and look it up on http://jonnyguru.com to see if it's any good.
