Hello,
I've got a pretty bad problem with my rig. A week ago it started cutting out on me.
The computer was running fine, under no real load (web surfing, etc) and then the power would cut out as if the power cord was pulled from the back. The rig would restart when I pressed the power button but the issue has persisted. Sometimes it hits within 5 minutes of boot, other times it can run fine for six hours.
It doesn't seem to be a temperature issue, nothing seems out of the proper range and I've been running the computer with the case open to check it.
Nor does it seem to be a problem with the RAM as I have swapped out all my sticks and still suffer from the power loss.
I even tested the voltages on the PSU with a multimeter and I couldn't see anything wrong with the readings (Although I have never tried testing a PSU in this manner before).
So I have no idea whats going on and would really, really appreciate some help.
All the relevant parts are still under warrenty but I'd need to know what part was causing the issue before sending them in.
