Hi all. Last 2 days my pc suddenly turn off when I playing The Division and can't turn it on back again. Not sure what happen to it. But there is still yellow light on the motherboard whenever I turn on the power supply. Not sure is it normal if there is electric sound coming out when Í'm moving my PSU adapter at the back of the PC. I'm planning to repair and upgrading my pc and I don't know where to start because I don't know which hardware is faulty. Any tips on detecting which hardware is faulty and which part to upgrade? My PC spec are as my signature.


[Budget] RM3k -RM4k

[Purpose] Gaming(usually First and Third person shooter, current game - the division, just finish playing fallout 4), Downloading, Torrenting, Leaving the PC turn on for 1-2 days because of torrent. Surfing, Movie

[Hardwares that will be re-use] Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse, Speaker, Headphone, Casing, SSD, HDD, CPU cooler(I believe all of this still working well)

[Monitor resolution] 1920x1080

[Games & softwares that use frequently] Currently The division, FPS, TPS, RPG, Action RPG, Torrent, Microsoft Office, Media Player for movie

[Personal preferences] CPU, Motherboard, Graphic Card, RAM, PSU. As long as I can have a better experience in using my pc. Not interested in SLI/Crossfire and Overclocking. As long as the stock speed is good, it's enough.

[Location] Maybe going Ideal Tech or Viewnet in lowyat plaza

Since mobo is still having response, I suspect it is PSU problem, your current CPU is still very strong and capable to run latest games without any issue, I would suggest you to bring your rig to a PC shop and borrow a PSU from the shopkeeper to test first, if the culprit is really PSU then just get a new PSU.

Not recommended to buy any new current gen GPU now because Pascal/Polaris (new next gen GPU from Nvidia and AMD) are coming soon in next couple of months.

Thanks rclxms.gif . After check at Ideal Tech, it seems that my PSU has no more power in it. I just bought Super Flower Leadex Gold 650W.

Is it sufficient to power up gtx980 or gtx980ti since i'm overclocking my CPU a bit for 24/7 usage. Im afraid my old rig will bottleneck it.
