So recently my PC has being blue screening / just turning off on high demanding games, so instantly I thought it was the PSU. I replaced my PSU 3 months ago because of the same thing happening with my last one. So basically I didn't do anything about it because installing a new PSU is a hassle but other weird things have started happening.
List of things:
The problem got worse today when I open my computer and discord takes around 3 minutes to open, so automatically I think its my SSD that's the problem. I do a benchmark and it takes around 10x longer than it usually does but it says everything on my computer is in good condition and performing as intended?! My pc is basically unusable now, applications that used to take a second to open now take nearly a minute.
When I check task manager none of the hardware is stressed or at 100% when stuff like this happens.
Can PSU issues lead to loss of memory or something, or corruption of data such as my keyboard stopping randomly? I am so lost at this point.
Note: I've done a full scan of all my drives with Malwarebytes and it says there's nothing.
-Zotac GTX 1070mini
-VS550 Corsair PSU
-16GB DDR4 @3200Mhz
-Ryzen 5 1600
List of things:
- Game settings all resetting
- Desktop icons rearranging themselves on reset
- Desktop background being all red
- Keyboard just stops working / all the keys rearrange their bindings (I don't even know how that's possible), which fixes itself when I replug it
- My primary monitor keeps swapping around (Once again idek how thats possible)
