So I couldn't test the other PSU as it's super old and has a shorter power connector that goes into the motherboard. What I did manage to do was, I have another motherboard to which I connected the PSU I'm having the issue with, and the same exact thing happened there. I only used the PSU power...

Thank you, the only other PSU I have access to is one in a very old PC, but I'll check if I can use it for testing this later. I will also check components and cables - I don't think I left anything loose after assembling the system in the new case, but will make sure.

Hi, I did a search on this but the few threads that sounded generally relevant were not specifically about this issue, so I thought I'd open this one. Issue: My PSU turns off after a couple of seconds of running after I turn it on. The fan starts spinning, and then the whole component shuts...

I think I figured out what the issue was, so I'll post for anyone who might search for this in the future. I checked Windows Event log, and under Application I saw the following error recurring: "Faulting application name: ctfmon.exe, version: 10.0.19041.1, time stamp: 0x60c3fe88 Faulting...

Updated BIOS to F21 version just to check if that would change anything. No effect.

I noticed in SSD performance stats in Task Manager that Average Response Time for C: drive occasionally spikes to over 20ms. Is this within expected range?

I reset the RAM overclock and the issue is still there, so it wasn't that.

The lag is there at the moment and RAM usage is at 35%. My RAM is overclocked too - once the Windows scan is over, I will try resetting it to default values in BIOS and see if that makes any difference. Here's additional details on memory: I have paging file set to automatic in Virtual Memory.

Malwarebyes scan says nothing suspicious; I'm running Windows Security scan and so far it hasn't found anything either.

I also can't see anything suspicious running in processes either. P.S. Tab switching in browser, highlighting text and other basic operations like this are also affected by the lag.

C: drive has 106 GB free of 222 GB D: drive has 243 GB free of 465 GB So more like about 50% used on C and about 45% used on D

Thank you for the reply. SSDs are about 60 percent full; GPU temp is 43 C; CPU temps are like this:

I started experiencing this the other day, without having made any notable change to the system or applications, or having installed any new apps. Operations such as Alt+Tab window switching, calling the Start Menu using the Windows Key, etc - in other words, Explorer actions - are lagging...

Thank you for the reply. Specs are in my signature, OS is Windows 10 Pro x64 AFAIK Arctis 7s don't have proprietary drivers that you can download - I've searched for them before I have audio equaliser/tuning app installed, but this issue was there even before I installed it I have already gone...
