And that's why I love Jonny Guru.

Anyways sifus I wanna ask, are so called full Japanese capacitors a real benefit or is it a gimmick? Also is low ripple, while not a must for daily use, affect full blown gaming with your GPUs running at full tilt at any way?

And holy heck take a look at this.

Yeah those are pregnant alright, explosively so. Found an interesting read (http://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=13) but this was so damn long ago.
I wonder if it now just marketing or are Japanese capacitors really still miles ahead of normal Taiwanese caps.

What do I have to do with this ahahha. But yeah , avoid Aerocool PSUs. Seasonic is still the safest bet. Or even the Antec HCG since its seasonic OEM.

Been using a Corsair AX860i for about a year now. Was recently hit by a spate of BSODs and crashes, which unfortunately covered up my real problem. I've removed the offending TP Link Drivers which was causing my crashes, but on top of the error IDs pointing to the drivers, I noticed Error ID41 pops up a lot. Now I still get hit by Error ID 41, which relates to power and unnatural shutdowns. I don't even see the Blue screens now that the PC resets itself instantly thanks to removal of the corrupted drivers. Is it a PSU issue? Some people said it RAM but I did a full check and nothing was wrong on the hardware side.

I've used Command Prompt to check the entire system and also the drives. All fine. The problematic TP Link drivers are dead and gone. I will proceed to do a memory check as well as Aida64 stress test.

PSU borrowing might be a bit difficult though. See how.

Also, this only happens when playing BF4. Doesn't happen for any other games.

That's the first thing I did lol. Second one was the disk check where I had to restart the pc. Both came back fine.

I don't even see a blue screen man. Just wham bam restart in 2 seconds and my pc acts like nothing just happened. I'll restart it again since it lags abit after the crash. Then all smooth sailing from there.

Okay will do so. Thanks.

I think it's either my mobo or my PSU. Why?

My motherboard hits 50c during gaming. I know my room temps is around 31-33 and my bottom rad is pull mode, so hot air does come up, but 50c is a bit on the high side. Plus I think I need to check the surge protection feature.

My AX860i, I didn't install Corsair Link. So my PSU fan is silent, and until starts when it hits a certain temperature. But even when it does, only at 40% speed. I configured and installed Link so now it's permanently at 60% fan speed. Doesn't breach 35c even when gaming. My total consumption during game was 400W tops anyways, half of my capacity.

Hopefully it'll solve some and doesn't restart again.
