I first bought the CPU and gpu and then ahead loading games like borderlands UT3 ect, the game would sprint gently sh#%@ then stabilize and look great, then computer would solidify and I would have to solid restart. It never blue screened, never shut itself down.
So I consideration require of power for ma baby, I had an older 400w power supply.
Went to fry's, grounded the new PSU, now it appears that the computer runs faster no doubt, I’ll load games in no time, but 100% of the time, once the game approaches to the normal surroundings of the game... i.e. not the loading cinematic ect, it'll shut itself down. Appears typical of a PSU that is overcome.
Soon as it powers down, I don’t acquire a light from the mobo, and have to unplug the psu and stay a few minutes, plug it in... Switch it on. As you can perceive by this short novel I wrote, it sprints w.o a graphics load just fine. I desire to believe it’s the GPU however; the thing was operating games former today until the new psu.
