Hey guys, i've recently upgraded my CPU to a AMD FX 8370E
replacing the old one which actually wasn't compatible it seems...
(old one was AMD phenom iix4 965 3.4ghz)
But now i'm experiencing some issues in performance, It's shutting down, without warning, just goes to black and turns off. It did blue screen once but it was too quick for me to see what the issue was. It seems ok when I don't do alot on the pc, hence why i'm thinking the issue is related to the PSU, i was considering upgrading it but not sure what i would need in order for the rig to be able to run... without f*~king up aha. Any help and advice would be awesome thanks
my rig specs are as follows:
Psu: alpine 650w
Mobo: Asus m5a78l-m lx
Ram: 8gb 1866mhz crucial ballistic
Gpu: nvidia gtx 630 4gb
Wifi: Asus pce-ac68 (10m extension for aerial)
Hdd: 500gb samsung
Os: windows 7 home premium x64
Optical: sony-optiarc dvd-rw
