Custom PC sometimes boots 3x - following with error

[TheGuy12211221]

Hello, I've built a custom pc a while back and started noticing strage behaviour over some time.

It sometimes tends to reboot twice when i start it up, then it brings me to the 'megatrends' screen saying that overclocking failed and that i have to press f1 to enter the configuration of the bios i guess.

Overclock settings are on normal!

 

Hardware:

CPU: Intel i7 - 5820k

GPU: EVGA Gtx 980ti FTW OC SC+

RAM: 16 GB Gskill Ripjaws 4

PSU: Corsair HX750i

Mainboard: ASUS x99-a

CPU cooling: Corsair h110i

(could it be that it doesnt get enough power sometimes????)

Define  "a while back".

 

I'd be cleaning out the "some time" and "while back" dust and re-seating all your hardware.

re-seating still wouldn't hurt....mate.

 

There's nothing wrong with your choice of PSU so sufficient power shouldn't be a problem.

now I tried killing it. When it died, it did this cylce (turning off by holding down power button) but i dont know why it does it sometimes.. I always try to turn it off using the windows power off funktion

You should update the bios/uefi to latest version first of all.

thank you for that suggestion, somehow i tried updating it in the past but failed, now i got it and it also started reading cpu temps correctly!!!

do you think that any of my pc components took damage, or got heavy wear before the update? Sometimes windows didnt detect one ram module, but when i went into the bios it detected all of them
