Yeah I can understand that. I have been checking a lot of the databases in Cybenetics and watching Gamer Nexus videos about power supplies. Since I don't have many option available where I live and shipping is basically impossible because of embargos, I will most likely buy a power supply when...

Maybe you should try to run the system with a different PSU, preferably one that you know for sure works or is new.

In the OCCT stress test I only see graphs for +5V and +12V, where is your +3V? Have you noticed any fluctuations in these voltages while monitoring? I would guess it is your PSU to be honest. You may also want to check Event Viewer and look at the errors or critical errors you get at the time...

Apologies as I don't understand much about PSU's, is that a newer type of PSU build for ATX cases? I haven't really been looking into that so I am not sure if it is available where I live, but I highly doubt it.

Hey everyone, I am having some problems with my PC where it keeps restarting on its own and I think its the power supply being damaged from common power outages and fluctuating voltages in my country. There aren't many options available when it comes to power supplies either but I have found...

I dust and clean my case every month or at least every two months. I have re-seated all cables and my SSD, haven't touched the CPU though. I will be looking to get a new PSU in the near future anyways. I am hoping it will solve the issue.

I checked and it just shows that windows was not shut down correctly.

I believe the PSU is over 5 years old now. I honestly feel like its a power issue since it initially started due to an underrated UPS of 600VA which I soon found out wouldn't be suitable for my system. After removing the UPS the issue stopped, but soon after started again from a power surge...

Hi all, I have been having sudden restarts on my system for a few months now. Everything was fine last month but the issue started again. Any ideas? I don't get any blue screens, just shuts off and restarts, the EZDebug light for the CPU comes on when it happens. After checking the event...

I feel like from all this, I should just not upgrade my system at all lol. If I were to upgrade though, I would like to stick to Ryzen for now. Maybe the best bang for buck would be the 5800X3D with the same motherboard and same RAM, although since the 9000 series is dropping in July, I will...

Well, resizable bar, WiFi capability (I wont be having ethernet in the near future), I also have minimal headers and would like updated usb ports. I have space for just one M.2 with my current board, I want to add another. Also the ram speed is capped at 2667 MHz ...

These are all really good points to be honest. I don't want to spend money just for the sake of spending. My main concern is that I want to change my motherboard and RAM really, my CPU performs well and I only thought of the R5 7600X as it was part of a bundle deal. I think I should just hold...

So what upgrade would you recommend I do? Are you saying I should go for something like a 5800X3D? If this is the case then what about someone with a high end CPU from the 3000 series, should they not upgrade to the highest end 7000 series? (or 9000 series when it drops)

Current Specs GPU: RX 6650 XT CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 PSU: Cougar CMX 700W MB: MSI B450 Gaming Plus SSD: Samsung 970 Evo Plus RAM: PNY 2x8GB 3200MHz Monitor: PHL 242E1GJ 144Hz Hey everyone, just want to get some opinions on whether I should upgrade my AM4 system to AM5, I found a deal for a Ryzen 5...

All of my case fans and my AIO cooler's radiator fans and CPU block are connected to my ARGB fan hub which came with my case (MSI Mag Forge 112R). There is no issue with the RGB on my components but rather with the power cable for the hub itself. While the PC is running, if I take out the power...
