Question COMPUTER FREEZING RANDOMLY!

[Protous]

Hey guys. I have been gaining these random Freezing problems. That happen once every minute or 30 seconds. They last for about 10 seconds. Now I called the computer service and they said it'd cost me 20€-30€/per hour so they'd try to find the problem. Now I'm wondering since I get that on windows itself aswell. Like no games open only like a chrome web browser.
PC SPECS:
GTX 1050 Ti
i5 6600K
Socket LGA1151
Power Supply 450W
8GB RAM (2x4GB)
2TB Hard Drive
480GB SSD

The last things I added cost me about 400€ in total. (REPLACED ITEM) - (NEW ITEM)
Pentium G4600 - i5 6600K
1TB Hard Drive - 2TB Hard Drive (WD BLUE)
NEW ITEM: 480GB SSD

And the old specs used to cause me no freezing like this. I only was getting lag spikes because of the FPS Drop on games. But these specs are getting me crazy. Please help!

Did you get a decent cooler for the 6600k?

 

[Protous]

I am not seeing any cooling problems.
Temperatures are:
CORE 1 = 45°C - 52°C
CORE 2 = 47°C - 53°C
CORE 3 = 38°C - 48°C
CORE 4 = 42°C - 52°C

Whats the exact model of the PSU?

And how old is it?

 

[Protous]

Don't know where I can check that exactly. But I bought it about a good year and a half ago.

 

[Protous]

2017 around in August I believe.

8GB RAM (2x4GB)

It also appears you don't know what memory part number you are using or how to set memory parameters in BIOS.

 

[Protous]

8GB RAM (HX421C14FBK2/8)

 

[Protous]

Are you here to judge me or help me?

Just looking at your pc specs it seems to me your psu is too weak for your system. Your pc is probably requiring more power than your psu is able to provide it with.

Check out this psu calculator to see the real power requirements of your pc:

https://outervision.com/power-supply-calculator

Fill it out and see how much power your pc is actually demanding from yor psu.

Also, your psu may be failing as well.

That website is a shill for EVGA and goes way higher than needed. Says a draw of 401w needs a 600w PSU why not 500 or 550???

Check the side of the side or back of the PSU to find the model.

Well it recommends a higher power supply just to give you a more headroom to do other stuff. Don't forget that he has an overclock-able CPU which can draw more power.
I would recommend a 650 EVGA supernova g2 80+ gold instead of a 450 and it can last at least 5-6 years with good use.

What about this one? https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=100-B1-0600-KR

 

[Protous]

I don't want to go for a high end / expensive one. Need something around 60$

 

[Protous]

Either I buy 8GB more ram or this https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=100-B1-0600-KR , which I don't know which will help.

 

[iMatty]

I just checked the power supply tier list, this power supply that you want to buy is a tier 5 power supply.
So am not sure but you shouldn't really be going to any power supply below tier 3 and the one i suggested is tier 1.

[Protous]

Is there any other ones, cheaper?

 

[iMatty]

They say that the new cx 2018 series power supplies from corsair is good but the old one is trash.

 

[Protous]

Any suggestions? Need to be around $50-$60

 

[iMatty]

https://www.corsair.com/uk/en/Categ...-PLUS®-Certified-Power-Supply/p/CMPSU-500CXV2 thats the one you are looking for.

 

[Protous]

I got a feeling adding only 50W will barely make a difference.

 

[iMatty]

Well I suggested the best power supplies out there stop cheaping out save some more money and go for a high end one, nothing else I could do

 

[Protous]

Also, over my budget. Budget is 50€-60€

 

[Protous]

Can you find me one that's around 600W , for about 80€
