    [SOLVED] Cooler Master Masterfan MF120 Halo Help

    My mother board is an MSI X570 Gaming Plus. The thing is, I have considered those controllers, but if I use those controllers instead of the one that comes with the fans, I would lose out on the Masterplus based software control for the fans right? These are the Gen 2 fans, so meaning the...

    [SOLVED] Cooler Master Masterfan MF120 Halo Help

    Hi. I have recently ordered 2 x (3 fan packs) of Masterfan mf 120 Halo fans, Gen 2. That's 6 fans in total. Each box comes with a mini aRGB hub. Connecting the fans to the motherboard via the aRGB hub is essential, as only then I will be able to make use of the Masterplus software. The normal...

    PC restarts randomly regardless of activity

    PC restarts randomly regardless of activity

    Thanks a lot for the reply. Yes I have swapped the memory with a friend. Also borrowed another PSU to test. Even with those things, the result was the same. Kept restarting. Ok so for about 2yrs+, I have had this PC connected to an extension socket with other things, and it has been working...

    PC restarts randomly regardless of activity

    Also I tried running memtest86, but because the pc keeps restarting every time, it even restarts in between running that test. In fact it restarted just a few seconds into memtest

    PC restarts randomly regardless of activity

    Another update, I have just cleared my CMOS too, as in removed the cmos battery and attached it again and start. It sets defaults and then the restart problem is still there. So that didn't solve it as well

    PC restarts randomly regardless of activity

    The temperature is on normal usage, Idle its a bit lower. I can't open event viewer anymore as it keeps restarting, so I am unable to login even. I just tried and now the restarts seem a bit less random. The PC boots up, and after 10-15 seconds, just restarts, regardless of the screen I am in...
