Hey guys,

My PC hangs after I load my gpu for a while. For example, if I'm gaming or running a blend torture test with prime 95 my entire pc freezes and there's no input (mouse/keyboard doesn't work) or output (sound). The only fix is a hard reset. I've attached two administrative event logs and a pic of my device manager. All my drivers are up to date

Here are my specs

Hope you guys can help, without being able to game buying this pc was counter productive

Welcome to PCHF SirGuppy,

Couple of items in your build, the cooler has many reports of pump failure and leaks and the CX range of PSUs are not intended for high end rigs only office desktops, Corsair actually state the following;

CX-M and CX Series PC power supplies are an excellent choice for basic system builds and desktop PC computer upgrades. CX Series PSUs have 80 PLUS Bronze certified efficiency and are available in a variety of configurations to help you choose exactly the amount of power you need.

Please take expanded screenshots and only use the method below to attach them.

Download Speedfan from here and install it. Once it's installed, run the program and post here the information it shows. The information I want you to post is the stuff that is circled in the example picture I have attached.

If you are running on a vista machine, please go to where you installed the program and run the program as administrator.
