Also tried reinstalling windows and running the ram at 2133, but it didn't work.
I have 8 days left to RMA it to Newegg, before I have to go through the Biostar RMA process.
Hi, I'm having weird crashes with my new Skylake build.
Core i5 6400
Biostar Z170GT7
2x 4G Geil DDR4-2400 Ram
Radeon R9 290X Sapphire Tri-x
EVGA 750w Supernova Gold Power Supply
Crucial MX200 250GB SSD
That's all I can remember right now.
Anyways, I'm getting random freezes. The mouse and...
Could someone please tell me what the default Vcore of the i5 6400 is supposed to be? I read 1.35v. This pic is with a 4 cores running at the same time with prime95.

Hey! I got my new videocard and it's working great. No problems so far.
My gut feeling is still that I didn't need a new power supply and it was a bad graphics card. But, I'm still glad I purchased the new power supply because of the reduced noise with 'ecoboost' on.
Thanks again for all...
WELL, I guess it is no longer an issue. I ended up ordering an EVGA 750w G2 that was on sale. I'll keep you updated on how the replacement grahpics card works out. Thx all.
I didn't think anyone else was wrong. I think the advice I've received here has been very, very excellent thus far. I'll just have to think it through, heh. :)
