I have a brand new build that is having issues (partially resolved, but read on) and I can't put my finger on it since every website or post comes to a completely different conclusion.
The Build:
Rampage V Extreme
i7-5930k
Corsair H100i
Corsair DDR4-2800 4 x 4gb
Samsung 840 Evo
Ultra X4 1050W Modular PSU
Pioneer Bluray burner 12x
Gigabyte R9 280x Windforce OC Rev 2.0
The Problem:
Built the PC on 11/12/14, and it ran stable until 11/15. There was no overclocking done. Just some moderate gaming on everquest2. nothing extravagant.
When I turned the PC off for the night, (via shutdown) it shut down ok. AN hour later it powered itself on (was almost asleep dang it) and gave me the error:
a surge was detected from a the previous power on and surge protection enabled. (forgive me, not exact wording, but you get the idea)
After this, my wifi would not connect. I saw the driver in device manager had a ! on it, device could not be started.
I called Asus they told me to reinstall windows, so I did. It worked for a day. Next time I shut the PC down and went to sleep, it was on and running next morning displaying the error again.
At this point I was tired of it, so I replaced the Powersupply and the motherboard, and rebuilt the PC Again. 11/21
All weekened I've had no issues whatsoever.
This morning I get the surge error. However this time, I did a soft reboot, went right into windows with no problem and wireless worked just fine.
I've seen some say its a glitch with the NAND that's in the Samsung 840 EVO
I've heard some say just turn off the surge warning and its ok.
Others say its a bad PSU.
I'd like some definitive answers or perspective on this, because this is driving me crazy.
Thanks, I appreciate your time.
