Hi everyone ! I have been having a serious problem lately with my computer.
Specs below.
Symptoms - Fps games - Counter Strike Source; Battle Field 3; Tribes Ascend, and i play wow, but havent noticed it happening in that game.
Tribes Ascend - computer restarted as soon as I connected to a server. I just logged into Tribes Ascend, hit play now, and as soon as i connected my pc restarted itself.
Counter Strike Source - I can usually play 1 1/2 gun matches before my pc randomly restarts.
Battle Field 3 - Exactly like Counter Strike Source. I can usually make it 30-40 minutes without it rebooting itself.
My pc does this randomly, sometimes i will be just surfing the internet on my other monitor and it happens. I will go on to explain some things that i have checked to put a finger on what the problem is , but alas , its too illusive for this dummy.
My wall outlet only has my tower, and a room fan attached. My monitors, router , etc, are all attached to another surge protector, plugged into a seperate outlet.
I do not believe that my computer is overheating, because i will play wow on my 1st monitor, and stream Netflix; along with Itunes; Windows media player; Winamp, lol I dual monitor whenever I am sitting at my pc. I always have EVGA Precision X running, and my video cards keep a constant 82C while playing mostly all of my games, but i do take the precaution of to turn my gpu fans up to 80%.
Possible Problems -
The tree out front of my house was struck by lightning roughly 2 months ago. My xbox; mobo ethernet port; router; modem, all took damage. I am still using said mobo, connecting to the internet through a usb to ethernet adapter.
My PSU is brand new, my old psu died on me and I rma'd it. The symptoms I am having now I actually had before when my old psu went out, but what are the odds of that?
My mouse and keyboard wires have some of the protective sheathing missing due to having my pc in my living room sometimes, and using a usb extension to sit on my couch and play. My couch has recliners built in, so sometimes when i closed the foot support, the steel framing would scrape the wires.
The power cord from the power supply to the surge protector was accidentally unplugged while the system was running, but I am unsure if the problem was occurring before said accident.
I have also unparked my cpu cores, but once again I am unsure if the problem was occurring before or after said incident.
All your help would be much appreciated. Thanks guys/gals <3 !
