    Question Audio Buzz While Gaming. Ground Loop?

    Would you advise I return the 850w and go with 1000w? My audio interface is a Scarlett 2i2 with Rokit RP5 monitors. But I am also now getting the buzzing through my headphones plugged into the audio jack on my pc case. They are some cheap turtle beach things. I believe it grounded properly. I...

    Question Audio Buzz While Gaming. Ground Loop?

    I built my PC back in November using a cheap apparently low quality PSU and I had issue with my PC cutting out during gaming. After upgrading the PSU it has fixed that issue but exacerbated another. During gaming I get a constant buzz/whine through my monitors and my headphones. I had this...

    Question PC Cuts out during Gaming

    How would I confirm this is the issue? I'd prefer to avoid buying a new PSU just to test this out. If it is the PSU what should I get?

    Question PC Cuts out during Gaming

    I definitely tried to save a bit of money on the PSU. This was my first time building a PC and I assumed as long as I had enough watts I'd be good. Is there any way I can confirm the PSU is the culprit without buying a new one to test? What PSU would you recommend?

    Question PC Cuts out during Gaming

    My PC as of today will cut power during gaming. I built the PC around about November time. It has worked fine without issue until today. I can load a game and get around 5 minutes into gaming at which point the PC will just shutdown and immediately restart. As far as I can tell this isn't an...

    PC restarts after around 10 of gaming

    Right so this problem has been happening for the last few months or so. When playing any game my computer will shutdown and restart after around 10 minutes. I suspect it is overheating but I have seen that the PSU may also cause this kind of thing to happen. It runs fine during normal operation...
