Hi, for the past week or so my custom built computer has been randomly restarting with no BSOD. The event viewer shows it as loss of power. It seems to be entirely sporadic. I tried running Prime95 to duplicate the issue for about 5 minutes and nothing happened. I went back to browsing the web for like 15 minutes and it restarted.
The only thing that has changed recently was the addition of 2 4gb ram sticks. I do not recall whether or not the issue occurred before they were added.
The computer is about three years old so my first guess is a failing PSU unless there is something wrong with the RAM but not sure.
Computer specs are:
Windows 7 64 bit
Amd 3.2ghz x6 1090T black
GTX 560
BFG Tech GS-550W PSU
GIGABYTE GA-MA770T-UD3P
2 2gb sticks DATA XPG DDR3 1600 RAM
2 4gb sticks Kingston HyperX Blu DDR3 1600 RAM
All help apreciated
Thanks!
EDIT: Running memtest86+ overnight will update when done
