I'd also vouch for single rail. Check the efficiency ratings on modular power supplies to ensure you're not losing any power because of the connectors.
They'd probably be better alright. Less heat from fewer cables means less work for the fans me...
You may want to update your bios. Even though it may be new, your graphic card may be bad. Try to use it in another computer that is close to yours. When you start the gaming, the temp may be rising, so download a monitor utility to see if your co...
CHKDSK is magic.
boot up in recovery mode and CHKDSK \R
An important OS file was probably corrupt or damaged when your PC shut off.
If you do need a new psu, make sure it has 1 12volt rail and 1 5volt rail, chances are you have one with 2 rails and that couses the psu to go into protection mode, 2nd make sure it has japaneese capasitors, most likely your capasitors aren't maki...
Try use beree PSU, like TAGAN 600W
I don't have any gauges to monitor the temperature. Used to have one on google desktop but don't think it's accurate. Any suggestion?
sounds like your video reolution may be set too high.. start out low then work your way up
Points go to Dan for pinning the tail on the RAM portion of this donkey. Hope to hear good things soon Alvin :) Glad you got fixed up.
What sort of temperature gauges have you got at the moment?
There's no harm going overboard with your PSU. More wattage can actually mean better efficiency.
My pc has been running non-stop since saturday, i've been playing games, downloading, surfing but there are no problems at all after i took out the RAM. and also, i did not revert to 2.4Ghz.
i wish to monitor it for few more days before i make an...
when overclocking you'll want alot of headroom when it comes to power
you should consider getting a 1k watt psu
Dear all, my pc was repaired recently due to power supply failure. i changed my PSU on May as i took the advise from fellow friends here. My pc specification is in this post. http://geeks.pirillo.com/forum/topics/what-went-wrong

- Mabe your power supply doesn't have japaneese capacitors or single rails for the 12volt and the 5volt? Mine has bad caps so I wouldn't advice getting a coarsair. Also some one said resolution might be to blame, well that doesn't do anything other than making your graphics work harder. If anything try a bigger psu with ether 2, 80mm fans or 1, 120mm fan. Also try unplugging all your fans except one and keep swiching till the psu shuts off, most likely it's the case fan or fans that are shorting out.
