Ok, before I started with my problem, this is the summary of my system (all run in their default value, I Never tried or wanted to OC my pc)
Proc : Phenom II X4 840 3.2 Ghz AM3 (95W TDP) w/ custom deepcool fans (forgot the type)
Ram : 8 GB of DDR2 800 RAM (2x 2GB Strontium DDR2-800 RAM + 2x 2GB Kingston value DDR2-800 RAM configuration )
Motherboard : ECS A780GM-A rev 1.0 AM2+(yes from 2008)
Harddisk : 1 TB WD Blue 7200RPM + 1.5 TB Seagate 7200 RPM (I forgot the model number)
GPU : Zotac Dual Silencer NVIDIA GTX 660 2GB GDDR5 192-bit VRAM
PSU : FSP Aurum 400Watt
Monitor : 23" LG M230 (connected via HDMI port) + 18.9 " Samsung Sync Master SN 9200 (connected via DVI port with DVI to VGA adapter)
For almost 7 years my PC are running fine. I set the RAM Clock to run at 400MHz (800MHz DDR) manually through BIOS without any problem. But since a week ago, my PC randomly crash. Screens are suddenly blank, and my monitor indicating that there is no input detected. My system are definitely still running (case fans, CPU fans, PSU fans dan GPU fans still turning in a lower speed, but my mouse and keyboard hangs, harddisk indicator also turned off)
I've Tried to troubleshoot the case by cleaning my PC from dust,swap the harddisk, cleaning my RAM Stick and swapped it one by one with my spare DDR2 RAM also Installing fresh Operating system (win 7 x64 Ultimate), but the problem still persist.
When I set the RAM clock to 400 MHz , its almost certain to crash when login to windows or some few minutes after login even without doing anything.
I tried to test the RAM with memtest and windows memory diagnostic, it passed both test succesfully even the extended one.
And then I tried to set my RAM clock speed in BIOS to auto.
The crash already not occur when login, but its still occur randomly, just less often.
I've tried to set my BIOS Setting to limit the RAM Clock to 333Mhz, the crash still happen, but much less often than before.
Its still pretty annoying though, especially when it happens while playing games or watching Video.
Is there any chance that my motherboard are already faulty (the PS/2 keyboard slot already not working almost a year ago)?
Its already 8 yrs old nowadays, I just hope to hold it a little longer until Zen arrives to completely upgrade my system (mainboard, RAM and CPU at least, I'm not that rich sadly 😀).
thanks, and sorry for my english ....
