10 actually. I was looking at getting the Seasonic Focus GX 750.

@Bombastinator did bring up a good point tho, my PSU is due for a replacement either way so hopefully the issue goes away once I pick up the new PSU. Also, my GPU was at stock settings and there was no overclock on it when it black screened

The temps were fine when it black screened though. It was 72C or 73C. I just replaced the crusty thermal paste

Would have loved it if I could have used the PSU for another 2 or 3 years. From what I heard PSUs last from 5 to 8 years for normal usage.

Yeah it just finished the 5 years warranty that it had. Guess I'll just run out and get myself a new PSU. Hopefully that solves it. Looking to get a Seasonic PSU this time.

Darn, not sure if I should buy a new PSU tho. I'm hoping it's the PSU, it's the oldest component in my system currently. It's 4 years old and almost reaching 5 so I'm just hoping that it's my PSU showing it's age. But if it is the PSU, I think I'm going to change it asap lest it kills all my other components along with it when it decides to die one day

I've done countless memory burn in runs with furmark and it runs without crashing for hours on end. Definitely not the GPU.

Checked that, it's already in there tight.

Hey guys, so recently my rig started acting up. Whenever I play games, my screens immediately go black and the gpu fan rev up to 100% all while my game's audio still runs through my headset. I'm not sure about the case fans as I have silent ones but I can definitely hear the GPU fans rev up to 100%. Naturally, I assumed it was a driver crash and just rolled my settings back to stock and went on with my day, but the next day it happened again, this time while just watching a youtube video. I was starting to think that something's not right, I reseated the GPU, DDU-ed and reinstalled my GPU drivers, still no dice. I did some research on the internet and there's a bunch of theories from overclocking my GPU all the way to a dying PSU. So I just wanted to get a second opinion from you guys. Through my research, I saw this video on youtube which shows the EXACT same thing that's happening to me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrt77Z1cn2Q Another point to note is that I've just recently upgraded my PC except for the PSU. I kept my PSU since it was working fine for me before I did the upgrade, but all the other components are fairly new. The PSU's been running my PC for 4 years now so I'm not sure if it's old age showing too.

There's FAHBench for benchmarking cpus and gpus. It's more of a benchmark rather than a stress test tho https://fahbench.github.io/

Seems like everybody's trying to download the new update. I'm only getting 500KB/s download when trying to download from the site. Changelog can be found on the release post on the FAH forums. https://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=34466

Damn. Power consumption must be off the charts. I don't even dare to fold on my R710 lmao

Damn. The work unit is just sitting there chilling while the server's offline and more and more work units are also programmed to send to that server even though it's down. I'm just accumulating a huge backlog of work units for that server. Not really interested about the points atm tho

Does anyone know how I can change the work server for a WU I have? Just checked the server stats and confirmed that the work server for one of my completed work units is down and unable to send the results so it's just sitting there

My log just shows the core shutdown message just after readng the tar file. There wasn't any error messages. It only happens when I try to apply any overclocks while I'm in linux. Everything works fine on stock.
