Hey ive been having this issue for a month where my computer would randomly turn off when i played a game
I have a gigabyte am3+
amd fx 8350
sapphire radeon HD 7950
and a corsair cx 600
So when i ran the fur stress test the gpu could reach 95C without crashing if my cpu was set a 2.5 ghz
However if it was set a 4.0 ghz my gpu would only reach 51 then turn off
I thought it must've been a power issue so i underclocked my video card, i also resetted my bios by removing the little battery it has
So after that i played a game and it ran smoothly for about 50 minutes then it just turned off and now i doesn't want to turn on.
I got a paperclip and put it on the 24 pin on the PSU to see if my PSU was broken but it works fine
the fans run on my case etc but when i plug it in with my motherboard it turns on for a millisecond then it wont turn on if i press the button
(The only way it turns on by a millisecond is if i remove the cable connected straight to the outlet and connect it again)
Could it be the clock battery or do you think my motherboard is gone for good?
I removed my motherboard and looked around all the capacitors look fine no leaks none of them are bulged up the motherboard still looks brand new and the computer is only 6 months old
