Power supply issue or dead gpu?
Go to solution
Solved by boratemporal,
Solution was to update the BIOS of the motherboard, I think there may have been some software issue with the board chipset.
Steps taken:
- Clear cmos
- unplug all drives except boot drive
- boot to windows and install latest amd chipset firmware
- download and flash latest motherboard bios (This took four hours to install for me, the progress bar was basically not moving)
- System should be functional now
I will be reinstalling windows and seeing if that makes any difference but I have time since it is a very long weekend so I don't mind. I will also be upgrading to a GTX 1080 that I just got in the mail and see if it makes any more drama. Next paycheck I will also be getting a corsair icue 220t and a new power supply, don't know which I will be getting since 650w seems to be enough but I may jump to 750 just in case. Later this year I will be moving my boot to an nvme ssd and replacing my drives with some iron wolfs from seagate of a much higher capacity, maybe 4TB each.
