Question (SOLVED) PC often crashes, at the beginning or after pixels appear ?

And finally with the Novabench.

Ah, I see special case has an enclosure just for the PSU, you'll have to find how to get into that enclosure at the bottom. Or unscrew the PSU and pull it out from the back, as last resort. Make sure power cord is disconnected, PSU is off, use surgical gloves.

Is that an LCD or CRT NEC ??? Anyways, liquid cooling on GPU but stock fan on CPU ? I think you got CPU overheating problems.

Opening and unscrewing everything sounds kinda risky, I do not wish to completely break my computer. Pixels stopped appearing for the time being but the computer still occasionally freezes or power offs by itself.
The monitor is LCD.
Is there anything I need to do regarding the cooling?

 

[Cyberat_88]

I'd put the liquid cooler on the CPU, if parts match, otherwise get a serious high CFM fan. (75+CFM)
Or even an additional liquid cooler just for the CPU. But if the culprit is a low Wattage PSU, this won't really resolve any of your problems. If it comes to you not being able, take it to a computer shop, local small business not big corpos..

Here in my place any kind of service is ridiculously high cost so I guess the only way is to take a risk and open it myself. I'll take a photo and post it, if we both survive...

Ok I got in. Luckily I could see the model and wattage on the top so I didn't have to completely remove it.
The model is FSP RAIDER II 750W. Is this information enough?

 

[Miki248]

It also says 80+ Silver.

 

[Cyberat_88]

Yes, that's enough info. 750W should be just enough if not too old and broken.
Here's an easy test, put it back in, make sure you didn't disconnect anything.
Then go to Bios and leave it there overnight, if it's ok when you wake up, the PSU is fine.

I'm glad to hear that.
How can I go to Bios and leave it?

 

[Cyberat_88]

When the post screen comes up hit delete a few taps to be sure, go to temps screen, just for the info.
You can turn off the monitor, but leave the PC on.

Thank you. I got into MSi click bios menu, so I should leave it here?

 

[Cyberat_88]

Yes. See if it stays overnight.

I left it on for quite some time and it didn't turn itself off. Thank you very much for your help.
