  1. Sounds more like you have unstable input power in your house (assume the power company has repaired the pole?) especially if it seems to happen when you turn on high wattage devices. Are you able to take your PC elsewhere and leave it booted for a set time to see if its environment instead of the rig?

    they have repaired it few hour after it on fire

     

    i planning to power my rig on my friend house

    but i dont have  friend :P  :P

  2. System spec : 

    I7 3770k

    MSI Z77 mpower

    8gb ram

    R9 290 tri-x

    Seasonic x-660

     

    i been using the rig for almost 3 year 

    2 month ago one of the electric pole near my housing area was on fire and created(?) power surge i believe and since then the electric supply on in the area are rather unstable (light,microwave,oven dimmed for a moment)

     

     I notice if i turn on the oven,microwave,iron etc sometime my pc will shut down. From my reading, electric component wont be damage if the electric is insufficient.

    Another problem is it turn off even without the situation i said before, be it either i just browsing the internet or doing heavy gaming.

     

    After the electric pole on fire situation, i cant turn on my pc after i shut it down normally or the sudden shutdown above ^^. I have to wait around 2 hours or more then i can turn my pc back.

     

    There still 2 year left on the warranty but i believe it wont cover for situation like this(fire)? So is this my psu problem on electric power in my hose area are way to "dirty"?

     

    *for those who wandering when the pole was on fire someone immediately turn off the power on the whole area, my pc was on at that moment and i wasnt at home

  3. IMO pc case on top of the table are rather disturbing(all those sound and lightning), if u put it down cable management might be easier

     

    on my own setup, after several year cable management start to go away, i will only do minimal job on it as long it doesnt entangled 

  4. I run my computer on a monitor, and sometime i will extend(through amd software) to my tv

     

    sometime i cycle around my monitor and tv as primary display,the problem is if i make monitor as primary and then disable the tv display my monitor will render at 4k resolution and it will just show black screen, but if i enable virtual super resolution it will render in 4k

     

    so how do i disable from it automatically go into virtual super resolution every time i disable non primary monitor even i dont enable the feature in the first place?

  5. i ask from the shop that i buy my pc, i and i got the best answer i can get

     

    "should we charge u for this service(answering my/this question, not the RMA), u can send ur whole rig and "some money" and we will do the test"

     

    BS, i guess i have to do this on my own

  6. Well, I guess you could always wait for other people's opinions but unless you have a way of testing it in another system there is no way to be sure :/

    the same thing just happen again, but this time it happen around 10 min after i turn on the system,

    manage to reboot it again, i think i try to contact seasonic about this and probably get another backup psu if i gonna do the rma

  7. you should RMA it. It should definitely be covered under warranty.

    before that how do i make sure it my psu?

    *i dont have any spare psu to do the test

    *same thing happen (few min ago) the weird thing it happen on the same website/program/background program running, i will try to remake the situation

     

    just a preparation before i pay for the postage

  8. few hour ago(at the time i post this) my pc suddenly shut down, i was just browsing the internet (no heavy program running)

    turn on the power and it fail to boot, only my mobo light are turning on

     

    from what i can say its not cpu or gpu related, temperature is perfectly fine, no coilwhine sound

     

    what make me say its my psu is it sometime fail to power on on standby mode, i can only power it afterward by unplugging the power socket on plugging it back or around 5-20 sec after turning on the power socket

     

    is there anyway i can check this? troubleshoot it? any info missing?

     

    i somehow manage to turn my pc on 5 min later...
