That cuts it down to CPU+Mobo (+PSU ) That may help to calm Kitchen Command a little bit :smilewink: Gigabyte Aorus X570S Master - Ryzen 5900X - Gskill 64GB 3200/CL14@3600/CL14 - Asus 1080ti EK-waterblock - 4x Samsung 980Pro 1TB - 1x Samsung 870 Evo 1TB - 1x SanDisc 120GB SSD - Heatkiller IV - MoRa3-360LT@9x120mm Noctua F12 - Corsair AXi-1200 - TiR5-Pro - Warthog Hotas - Saitek Combat Pedals - Asus PG278Q 27" QHD Gsync 144Hz - Corsair K70 RGB Pro - Win11 Pro/Linux - Phanteks Evolv-X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I am not able to determine the culprit. I am not intending on hijacking this thread and turning this into a troubleshooting discussion, just explaining my situation. Symptom was: PC would run fine for awile flying DCS, and just randomly shut down, and turn back on. NOT a full reboot, just everything shut down, then right back to desktop, DCS no longer running along with anything else I had running, like Discord. I suspected Seasonic PSU so I sent it back, the report indicated faulty PSU, so they sent me another refurbished PSU. Plugged that in, ran DCS, 2 hours later, same thing. Ran Temp monitoring application for a long time, no apparent overheating anywhere. Pulled an old spare PSU off my shelf, plugged it in,PC would not power up, Motherboard lights would cycle on for a second and shut down. Tried that quire a few times while checking for good connections, nothing worked. Plugged Seasonic PSU back in,, Motherboard lights up fine, but PC wont boot because SSD wount show up to boot up to. Found SSD is now bricked and can not be seen on any PC I plug it into. So whats the issue? Who knows? With that being said, I suspect the only salvageable parts would be Tower, Fans, probably the GPU, but its time to upgrade I think (tried to use it for VR, but it was crap). I dont know if the CPU has been damaged in any way due to potential voltage spikes? Ram is likely still good. Thats about it. So now Im trying to figure out the most expensive parts, and that is, what do I really want for GPU and CPU without pissing money away. I have been reading thru the forums for days, and I do see that BitMaster has some very valuable advise for others with different concerns. Many thanks for that, i am trying to pick out what applies to my situation. Even considering buying a PC Rig thats already built if I can afford it. Many thanks all.

Viper1970 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Hello Fakum, sad to hear about your PC problem. Take a look at the capacitors around the cpu socket, maybe some of them are broken. Had such a symptom twice with some older hardware (AMD Phenom II Boards). At one board I was able to solder new capacitators on it and it worked again, the other board I had to replace with a new one. Both times I had the luck that nothing else did take any damage.

BuzzU Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Not sure how they can justify almost $2000 for the WC version. I only paid $1500 for my whole system. Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anytime you use a known good power supply for troubleshooting purposes, don't mix and match power cables from different power supplies, even from the same vendor. They are not wired to a standard on the power supply side, only the motherboard side. The polarities might have been reversed. It wouldn't be first time somebody has fried an SSD like that. Not that I would know anything about that...:music_whistling: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fakum Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Interesting! When I installed the temp power supply for testing, I intentionally intended to only use the power cabling that came as part of the temp PSU. The only issue I ran into was that I had to use the (3) existing PCI-E / CPU cables that were already in place due to the cable management system. One of course was feeding power to the SSD & DVD player. I never knew that could be an issue. I presumed the pinouts were all standard on both sides. Thanks for the feedback, and sorry about the unintentional hijacking of the thread all. Extremely helpful though, I will never make that mistake again!
