Computer crash

[veers23]

Ok guys, I'm at the end of my rope. I have built a system and have had it running fine for a year now. I have a msi 570-g54 motherboard with a gigabyte hd 6850 gpu and a amd quadcore black edition cpu. For some reason around a hour after the pc has been on the monitor goes black says I lost connection and the sound cuts out. The tower and all the fans run fine. I replaced the power supply,check all the wires, and re-seated the gpu. I have no idea whats going on. All the temps seem normal leading up to the shut off..

How are you checking your temps? What is the rest of your spec's?

Maybe it's something that is insufficient, put everything at stock. And also, what is 'normal' temps?

Step 1:- Remove gpu & use motherboard vga output.
If it's work then your mobo & psu alright.

The 6850 draws about 150 W at full load.
Whats your PSU?
If uour PSU is >= 450W then definitely your GPU is dead.

Do you have your rig set to sleep or hybernate after not touching the keyboard or mouse? Every computer I have ever owned always does something I have never ask it to do. Has anybody else been on it?

Why we think it is a heat problem is The system has been on for an hour and a half then the monitor goes black and shows disconnected. That is a normal sign or over heating. Does this happen everytime you turn on your rig?

check your temps again with different software. and also run a stress test like prime95.
