I know the problem and its the psu. the readings on the rails are absolutely deplorable. 2v on the 5v rail and 7v on the 12v rail. thats REALLY bad. You need a new psu. get a quality corsair psu.
CORSAIR HX Series HX750 750W ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V 2.91 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply New 4th Gen CPU Certified Haswell Ready - Newegg.com
this is an extremely good power supply and its on a really big sale. this is an incredible deal that I wouldn't pass up. I would get the new power supply quickly before your current one takes down your whole system.
I thought it was the PSU, it was such a cheap branded one and I never had problems until I upgraded my GPU which is 2.5x better than my original one! I was actually considering a corsair PSU, but I really don't want to spend 'too' much and only need around a 600W PSU. I saw a Corsair 600w on Amazon but it mentions it's '80 PLUS Bronze' as opposed to Gold. Is that such a big deal??
