Hello, I’ve been having trouble with my computer lately.
A couple of weeks ago, I upgraded the PSU to a bequiet! Pure Power 12 850w, and everything worked perfectly as before.
But for a few days now, the LEDs of the EK pump have started to flicker and change color without control.
Considering it was a minor problem to solve later, I continued to use the PC normally.
These days I’m playing Valheim, and I’ve had several CTDs that my friends, in the same condition, never had. I tried every possible troubleshooting step to fix the game and today I managed to play a long session, but after that the GPU stopped sending signals, there was a black screen on both monitors, and the PC was still working (I could hear the in-game audio), but I had to restart.
Can it be a faulty PSU? Is there something I can try before using the old PSU again? Any other helpful thoughts?
