Hi, So guys I need your help on how to determine what's wrong with my build. So here's my specs so you guys can see
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
ASUS P5G41T-M LX PLUS LGA 775
1 Stick of G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1066 (PC3 8500)
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 5450 1GB
WD 160GB HDD
OCZ GLADIATOR MAX CPU COOLER
Dynex 400W PSU
So what my problem is that it freezes It first happened when I tried installing a game then it freezed the keyboard and mouse is unable to use. Second was when I tried running prime95 after around 5-10 mins it freezed same thing keyboard and mouse was unable to use. So I wasn't really sure what's wrong so I assumed it was the memory so I did a memtest but it passed. I couldn't think that it was the motherboard because my first mother board was a GIGABYTE GA-G41MT-S2P but had the same freezing issue so i did a RMA and bought the ASUS mobo because i assume it was a hardware problem but I was wrong I still had the same issue when i got the ASUS mobo. I was like what could be the problem my CPU temps are fine, memory doesn't have problems as well as my HD5450. So the last thing that i haven't check was my PSU from what I think that its inadequate for this build? or that its not giving much power to my system. I really don't know what else to check because of the freezing issue please help!
I'm still waiting on my CORSAIR Builder Series CX430 V2 incase this might power up my system and be stable
