Hello,
I recently had cyberpower pc build me a computer for the sol purpose of playing SWTOR.
Here's what I have
:CASE: * Coolermaster HAF-X Gaming Full Tower Case w/ 1x230mm Fan, 1x200mm Fans, 2xFront USB 3.0 Port [+124]
CASUPGRADE: None
CD: 24X Double Layer Dual Format
DVD+-R/+-RW + CD-R/RW Drive
CPU: Intel(R) Core™ i5-2500K 3.30 GHz 6M Intel Smart Cache LGA1155 (All Venom OC Certified)
MEMORY: 8GB (4GBx2) DDR3/1600MHz Dual Channel Memory [+20] (Corsair Vengeance
MOTHERBOARD: [CrossFireX/SLI] Asus P8Z68 Deluxe Intel Z68 ATX Mainboardw/ BT GO! Lucid Virtu, IntelSRT & 7.1 HD Audio, Dual GbLAN, IEEE 1394a, USB3.0, SATA-III RAID, 3 Gen2 PCIe X16, 2 PCIe X1 & 2 PCI (All Venom OCCertified)
OS: Microsoft(R) Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit Edition)
OVERCLOCK: Pro OC (Performance Overclock 10% or more)
POWERSUPPLY: * 850 Watts - Corsair CMPSU-850TXV2 80 Plus Power Supply - Quad SLI Ready
FAN: * Thermaltake FRIO Overclocking Cooler Fan (CLP0564)
FLASHMEDIA: INTERNAL 12in1 Flash Media Reader/Writer
HDD: 1TB SATA-III 6.0Gb/s 32MB Cache 7200RPM HDD (Single Drive)
VIDEO: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti 1GB 16X PCIe Video Card [+41] (EVGA Superclocked
So here's my problem and if anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it because my only other option looks like sending it back to Cyberpower. When I'm playing my game, my monitor randomly puts itself to sleep and I hear a load buzzing noise coming from my speakers. At that point my monitor won't display anything anymore and I'm forced to shut my computer down manually. It seems to happen more frequently now. I checked the temp to rule out overheating and that's about all I have ruled out. Also, my friend said it happened to him while he was just browsing the internet, the monitor went out he said, but then came back on within 5 seconds. I suspect it's a bad video card but I really don't know much about these things. Also, it's a brand new HP HD monitor I'm using, I don't believe it's the monitor.. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Anne
