  1. i'm getting 11V on the 12V rail... i guess that does not help
  2. As I said, no OC and crashed, cooling is all working fine
  3. Hi, I'm having a spot of trouble with my pc. Earlier this week I played BFV open beta. It worked fine after I removed the OC on my GPU.. Otherwise the game would crash. Then yesterday tried to launch BFV and the whole computer crashed, loosing video signal then hearing the tell tale audio bug of a crash before the pc rebooted. Tried it twice before trying to run something else. I tried to run a time spy benchmark which has run well many times in the past and crashed the whole pc in the same fashion. Finally after many attempts, I managed to make it run.. There was a minuscule OC left on the GPU. Even though it ran yesterday, this still mean there's an issue with the pc. Just for information, I never pushed an OC on my GPU, I simply tried it a few weeks ago otherwise the GPU has always been stock clock. I can't tell for sure if the CPU has always run stock freq cause a bought it used a month ago. However the old CPU (g3258) has run since its release at 4.3 GHz.. So it's been many years. I am currently suspecting my PSU to be the cause of my problems.. But I do not have much experience with pc hardware troubleshooting, my expertise is troubleshooting industrial equipment. So I ask your insight with this issue. CPU : 4770K Cooler : captain 240EX GPU : EVGA GTX980 SC acx2 MB : MSI Z97 gaming 7 w/o integrated wifi PSU EVGA supernova 750 G2 SSD : Samsung 840 pro 500 GB Thanks for the help
  4. i'm kind of in the same situation.. but I dont want to start a new thread.. current PC setup. G3258 Cooler Master Hyper 212 (With 2 linus special edition Noctua fans) MSI Z97 Gaming 7 (1st gen = no integrated AC wifi) 16GB 2133 DDR3 Mushkin enhanced Black RAM 500GB Samsung SSD 840 EVGA GTX980 SC ACX2 EVGA SuperNova G2 750W The CPU has been OCd to 4.3GHz for most of the past 4 years (which might not help stability after 4 years) its temps are great.. generally around 70'c on load. The PC is almost always on. My PC recently started to reboot while playing PUBG. (I know right, a G3258 running PUBG !!?... you better believe it) at first i thought it was just a glitch.. but it did it again and again... so I decided to ge back to the 3..2GHz original frequency... with 3.2GHz the game is a bit choppier but still playable.. but it didn't reboot. However over the past week,the PC did reboot during the day. the first few times I assumed that some Update had been pushed by microsoft and forced to reboot the PC. so yesterday i installed Intel Extreme Tuning Utility. set the PC at 4.2GHz and stress tested it.. it took about 20 min until it crashed/rebooted. tried it a second time at base freq(3.2GHz) it ran the stress test long enough that i went to sleep. the next day, intel XTU says it had crashed and rebooted. So, i'm getting a 4790k next week and i'm wondering if the problem comes from the old CPU or the PSU.. since its been OCd for aboout 4 years and left on most of the time.. Is there a way to diagnose a dying PSU ? If its the CPU.. thats no problem because I'm getting a new one. I just don't want to find out the PSU is broken after installing the 4790k and having to go through RMA.. Thanks guys
  5. Z97 first version. the molex is plugged and the power switch is at on. however switching between on and off doesnt change anything. I did not reinstall the soundblaster software but i'll try that. I am sure its for the audio.
  6. Hi all I have been using a pair of K612 Pro for about a year with my desktop and its been a nice experience so far. i plugged them in the front and also rear jacks of the onboard audio... sure its not the best practice but the MB paper work said it was able to power headphones up to 600ohms.. that is quite a claim! following MSI's claim, i should be more than fine with my K612 PRO at 120Ohms ... however its not fine. my daily volume never goes lower than 86% , otherwise its too low to really enjoy music and gaming. more than often its at 100% and still lacking volume IMO. there is an auxiliary power point for the audio part of the board, pluging a molex and using the 12Vdc. i never really bothered to check about this issue other than looking to confirm its supposed to support 600Ohms. help would be really appreciated ! thank you !
  7. #Apple#Iphone#6months Fanatics will forget it in a heartbeat
  8. As far as i know, i received the 6.0 update way after Oct 2015, that's why I dont think it's that serious
  9. Says that the monthly update for my Nexus 5 should have stopped by October 2015,. But I still receive them ! I don't think that big of a deal
  10. So you just said that and is releasing a gpu that is darn cheap however you need two of those to get competitive performance. Even more to that amd is optimising the driver for crossfire so it could mean lesser performance with single gpu. They say it's 150w but they are using 2 so when at 100% its 300w compared to (im not sure) 185w of a single 1080...
  11. thanks, you basically confirmed what i thought ! and wow, 4.9 with your 4790k! i do 4.3 with my g3258 without even changing voltage ! devils canyon for the win !
