Thanks for your help, in truth an upgrade isn't the end of the world anyway but I was hoping to wait till the next gen of cpu's were out

Might see if I can find one somewhere otherwise I'll just buy a new one, my only concern is that the PSU might have fried some other things

I don't have a voltmeter nor do I really mind buying a new PSU, I just wondered if it was likely that the motherboard was fried as well and I should order all the new shit together

I had an issue with my PSU some 6 months ago when it turned out the fan wasn't always starting, fixed it by slapping a spare case fan on top of it so I wouldn't be surprised if that were it.

My pc black screened 3 times and now it isnt turning back on, when i turn it on the lights for my case fans turn on but they dont spin unless i manually get them started. All other fans spin but slowly. Before the 3rd black screen I did some temperature tests and some benchmarks, gpu was maxing at 85 during the valley benchmark and cpu wasnt going past 70 on prime95. So I assume its a motherboard or PSU issue. Is there anyway to test which ones broken if not both without finding other parts to test with

Dam dude thats brutal

Yup that rig Its happening when running csgo tonight cant remember what i was running when it crashed last night Sudden crash, i hear the fans stop and restart thats it

This happened a while back and then went away, my pc will randomly turn off then come back on either fully (like a restart) or just sit there with a black screen and only fans running, I tracked temps in game and they where fine.

Both cards are overclocked. One may be more than the other but still. Also if you need more performance you overclock and if you don't then it doesn't matter.

this benchmark differs

A 780 and 970 are exactly the same. i would actually say the 780 is better

My mate recently got his stolen items back. Also i looked it up on my own and found it was a thing. Im still retarded though

I was playing with a dude and he invites to a game with some mates, we join and everything is going fine but then i realise a dude on my team is afk, nothing to sus but hey whatever, I ask if they have a teamspeak they say no they use ventrilo. I though i heard of this before and they send me a link, its a bit wierd but i look it up and it seemed like a thing. I download but nothing happens when i launch it. They send me an ip when for when i get it working. I keep playing. we discuss it not working and they send me a new link. looks similar so i try and nothing happens. I then rejoin and talk to them then i respawn and bam nothing there all items had disapered. I go to trade history and find this guy http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197978059477 half his items are mine. Weird thing is, is he wasn't playing with me. They guy in game made a suspicious remark about it and i left. I deleted the downloads ran a anti virus and changed my pw. but know i cant seem to submit a report to steam. HELP PLEASE EDIT i looked it up and found this. http://www.ventrilo.com/ seems legit but they said i needed the version they linked.

Yep. Few others too

Oh nothing...

My mums is twice that i don't actually mind that much im just annoyed at how far behind we are

Please delete brokenness so i can avoid embarrassment

This is my dads EDIT: how teh fuk do you get it like that EDIT 2: i got fdis

My dads pretty chill even though he seems to secretly hate games and gaming in general.

Well for the next couple years i can just tell my dad the $us price and pay him back that i think hes caught on but doesn't really give a shit

well its $50us so actually compared to what paypal charges not bad. It was ~$9 for farcry yesterday even though on the store it was $7.50us

Make it rain

I feel like if i end up with $50+ in my steam wallet ill spend it all on skins

U used to be able to save money because it was $20au for $20us but now its even
