On load, my graphics card omits a faint high pitch buzzing sound. It isn't very serious and I can't hear with my headphones on, and when I asked my parents and some of my friends to listen to it, they either said it was extremely faint or they couldn't hear it at all. But for me I can seem to...

Update 2: The computer now randomly shuts off when just getting into the windows login menu. Sometimes I can get thru sometimes I can't. So I'm pretty sure now that I have a faulty PSU, I will mark this as "resolved" tomorrow once I replace the PSU and confirm this.

The issue seems to be getting worse, now the computer restarts randomly after about 5-15 minutes of just running chrome or a few application in the background.

EVGA G3 650 Supernova

I have tried everything, but I think it is because the PSU isn't sufficient enough to power my system. The gpu requires about 200 watts to power at full capacity, and then the Ryzen requires something also around 300. So already I am at the border, that isnt even including the motherboard, the...

UPDATE: I decided to do a benchmark test to check if the crash occurs when I push the GPU, and my assertion was correct. Every time I run the "Valley Benchmark 1.0" benchmark test on high settings it crashes the computer after a few seconds.

As the title states, my computer restarted for no reason while playing league of legends. When I checked the event viewer, it stated that the it was a Kernel Power 41 error. I am pretty sure my PSU overheated, but I can't diagnose the issue since I can't replicate the the problem. Doesn't seem...

If I decide to do overclocking, what cooler should I use? I feel that the 212 evo doesn't provide much cooling, but maybe since it redirects air to the back of the case, I can get 5-10 degrees less in value.

I decided to do a test with my current system, and turn off the wraith fan, apperently I can't tell the difference of the wraith being on or off at around 1200 RPM to 0 RPM. In other words, maybe the stock fans of my H500 are what are causing the majority of the noise from the system. I also...

Do you know by any chance what the noise difference is between the 2 coolers? (The wraith spire vs the 212 evos)? at, let's say around 1000 and 2000 RPM?

I currently have a 3600X attached with the stock wraith spire cooler that came with the box. I am not too interested in overclocking just yet, since none of the games I play require it, but I was wondering if it is worth it to purchase something like the Hyper 212 for $35 more? Since it's the...

The power supply I have is a G3 EVGA 650 watt Gold 80+. But I guess what you are saying is that it isn't something to worry about?

I also thought it was the hard drive, but it doesn't make sense why it would make the clicking noise at shut down.

So I just built my new system a couple of weeks ago, and I noticed that there is a very slight click singular noise that occurs (almost like a raindrop hitting metal) randomly at times. It occurs very rarely, but I noticed that it always makes one click right before the PC shuts off. I can't...

EDIT I went into the command center and I found what was causing the slight increase in noise: http://i68.tinypic.com/2e3ai42.jpg It seems that both the processor and the system fans are fluctuating randomly, is there any reason for this, is there any way to keep them stable, they should only...
