Hello everyone, this is my first post in this forum , I registered to share with you my problem and, hopefully , understand what is wrong with my machine.
Specs :
CPU i7 2600k
Mobo Asus p8p67
8 GB Corsair Vengeance low profile 1600 Mhz v1.5
Corsair TX 750
SSD Crucial m4 64 Gb.
Scythe Ninja 3
GTX 460
I kept only the GTX 460 from the old config and bought all the rest brand new.
Problem :
When I play a game , if I tab it the computer reboots once every 9-10 times. No BSOD.
I am able to replicate it in 2 ways :
1) OCCT Power Suplly test. As long as CPU kicks in with 100% usage + GPU 100% usage, system reboots.
2) Kombustor GPU burn in test, 1920x1080. As soon as i launch it , system reboots. ( It does not happen with res lower than that , does the GPU needs more power at higher res? ).
I have already updated Bios on the motherboard, all settings are DEFAULT. It happened also with other settings and OC CPU , but it happens at default too so it must not be a problem of settings.
I updated the M4 firmware to 009. but as long as i know , ssd should not be the problem.
I am able to run prime95 for hours and there will be no restart.
I can run Kombustor at low res for hours , no restart.
OCCT power supply leads to a reboot.
Kombustor 1920x1080 leads to a reboot.
What do you guys think?
I think my PSU may be faulty , and maybe I should RMA it.
but before doing it , i need to be reasonably sure thats the problem as i work with my pc and i will need to buy a new one before rma'ing it and then sell it when it comes back.
A few questions :
- Can a faulty PSU give NO problems at startup and lead to a system reboot when under a certain amount of load?
- Why does it crash with kombustor at 1920x1080 but not lower res? with OCCT it just crashes aftter the CPU kicks in ( after 2-3 mins i guess ) , so it's possible it's a problem of power.
- Is it possible my GPU is the problem ? it worked perfectly until i changed the rig
Btw CPU temps are 24-57 under load ( stock ) and 24-65 OC @4.3 ghz.
GPU temps are 28-70
Thanks in advance for your opinions.
