Hello LTT,

I have had a problem with a gaming rig I built

every time I try to play a game or even whats a YouTube video or even just browsing the web my computer freezes and doesnt let me do anything until I turn it off and restart it. Can it be a gpu issue. 

My specs are:

Amd fx 9590

asus crosshair formula Z

Asus Strix amd 390

generic 30gb of ram

thermalake powersupply 700w

It could be a RAM issue try switching around sticks and see if it still happens. 

My Work in Progress PC http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/522048-xeon-build/ <-- That PC was built but never booted:(

My Work in Progress PC 2.0 https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/540583-xeon-build-20-code-name-xenox (Hopefully this one boots.)

This could also be it the 9590 is a hot CPU.

Probably the Power Supply being shit.

 

Or the CPU being unstable at its speed.

 

But I'm willing to bet it's the PSU being shit.

 

Replace it with a good 600 Watter like this one.

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

 

Computer having a hard time powering on? Troubleshoot it with this guide. (Currently looking for suggestions to update it into the context of <current year> and make it its own thread)

all that stuff is power hungry and you're running a "450watt" power supply.......... yes, I know what you wrote.

 

edit: also, what are you cooling the cpu with?

i don't think this power supply is good enough. I would get 60-80amps and a good name brand.

some of your components overall draw too much ( liek a cpu or gpu under load)

Not just a good name brand, cite a model.

 

Or we get users stuck with XFX XTs and old CXs.
