First, I would like to say to any grammer nazis, I'm typing this from my phone.
Ok, with that said.
My build consisted of two twin frozr ii 560ti gpus. I had a 775watt diablotek power supply, everything worked fine. I recently bought a corsair gs800 psu. I hooked it up and went to play a game, and the computer shut off. Made sure everything was connected securely, it continued to do the same thing. Eventually it stayed on without playing a game but then bsod. And the next time it stayed on but slowly a lot of green and pink pixels started crowding the screen. So I took out the new psu, put in the old one and it seemed fine. Then it shut off. And when I say shut off, the screen turns green and its frozen, but the computer is still running. So I of course have to turn it manually. I flipped the power switch on the psu and checked everything in the computer. I flipped it back on and the psu popped and started buzzing. So I immediately flipped it off and unplugged it and everything from the psu and took it off. Put in the new psu and went out and bought a cheap video card as I did not want to risk damaging my other 560. It worked fine. So I tried my other 560, its working fine as we speak. But heres the wierd part. When I had both 560 gpus in there, and checked the temps..niether went above 30º. And when powered off, the videocard does not even feel hot, just warm. I have plenty of ventilation, 7 case fans not including the two on the cpu cooler (closed loop water cooler). And since its working now, leads me to believe my card was overheating, but the temps never got high, even when gaming the day before. My temps do not go above 65º. Is there anything else that could be the problem, maybe the psu caused something? I checked the msi website and it said the card has a 3 year warranty if purchased after 2010. Its only a year old. Any help would be great.
