    Question Frustrated with a 2.5 year old building that just stopped working

    Yea, I agree that many PSUs out there are very poor quality. Believe it or not, I bought a case in 2008 that came with a PSU. The problem is the PSU was only 200 watts and generated so much electrical noise, my radio was picking up noise from it. That prompted me to buy the Antec. I can only...

    Question Frustrated with a 2.5 year old building that just stopped working

    I bought the Corsair RM750X. It is fully modular which was a great upgrade over the old one that had no modularity. The old one was a Antec 650 from 2008. Yeah, I am very happy that the MBs and CPUs are much more robust than the days of old or I would have had to replace those too.. I...

    Question Frustrated with a 2.5 year old building that just stopped working

    That is a good point. I have tested it with a PSU tester and it shows all voltages output are correct, but I am still temped to try another PSU. I have read that RYZEN 5 3600s tend to run hot, I am just wondering if the Wraith Cooler was not doing enough and the CPU is now dead.

    Question Frustrated with a 2.5 year old building that just stopped working

    I built a system 2 1/2 years ago. I used a GIGIBYTE B550M DSH3, RYZEN 5 3600, Antec 650W PSU and, GSKILL DDR4 Memory. System worked from the first time connecting and worked well for 2 1/2 years. Last week I started to get random lockups and needed to reboot the machine. The last time it...
