  1. UPDATE: I bought a new 650W Bronze Cool Master PSU. It's still happening uhhhg... maybe not as reguarly. But it did happen 3 times during game of thrones ?
  2. Really gotta contact your local stores it's pretty common to get bigger discounts when you buy all your gear from the 1 seller. Tell them your budget and if they want your business, which they should, then thy'll look after you with upgrades etc. Once you get an offer go online and see what you are really saving compared to buying individually online. Then you can ask other shops and compare. It's totally possible in your budget to get a great deal.
  3. Hey guys, I've been searching for help regarding my issue for a while now and haven't been able to find a solution so I figured i'd give this forum a go since I'm an avid streamer of LTT. I have a display crashing issue and I'm not sure what is causing it, i'll lose picture for just a moment then it'll come back, like the GPU has reset itself. Anyway the whole story is below, thanks in advance for any help! So a few weeks ago I bought a GTX 1660 Armor OC GPU and brought it home for my oldish desktop. It ran fine, but was bottlenecking on my old mb and 4th gen i5 cpu. So the bug bit and when pay day came around I went out and bought a new set up; Ryzen 5 2600X CPU MSI X470 Gaming Plus MB and 2x8gb fancy OCPC RAM sticks. Using a TLC 4k TV or display but only run at 1080. I also bought a Chinese brand (no English name) new 520W PSU to go along with it Which seems fancy and trustworthy enough, tons of these are used in the local gaming cafe near my house. (I live in China) So put everything together and booted it up, things went well to that point. Then, with no GPU load the display would lose signal, then regain signal straight away. It does this regularly and has been for 2 weeks now. I spend most of my time just watching football or youtube with the odd game but no matter what load I'm throwing at it it still does this mini crash, sometimes every 10mins after a fresh start up, sometimes not as regularly...30-40 mins if the desktop has been on for a few hours. It never gives me a "driver crash" error or anything like that and I can still run low benchmarking tests with no problem. Just seems to happen at the most random times. The only point of interest is that when the picture comes back the browser I was using will be smaller, like its been shrunk to fit a 800x600 type size screen. Any ideas? Could it be low PSU? Faulty GPU? TV Display issue? Thanks again in advance for any help!
