I was hoping someone could help me with my HTPC/Gaming rig build. I have on board GPU cross fired with my discrete card but after a few hours of gaming the system restarts. I am sure the two possible reasons for this :
- Overheating
- PSU Overload or Issue
Can someone help me to pinpoint the issue and how to conclude what actually is the reason of frequent crashes. My build is:
CPU: AMD A8 3870K 3GHz (OCed to 3.6GHz)
GPU: Sapphire Radeon HD 6670 DDR5 1GB (OCed to 1100MHz)
PSU: 430Watts Seasonic 80+ Bronze
RAM: GSkill 2x4GB 1600MHz (running at 1866MHz dual mode)
MB: MSI A75MA-G55
CPU Cooler: CM 212 EVO
I prefer to OC my CPU/GPU through AMD Overdrive as the BIOS tool OC Genie can't even OC my system to 3.1GHz and it fails to boot.
I appreciate any help I can get.
