My PC just shut off by its self. Ram LED's still lighting up though?

Simon Belmont · 3 Sep 2016 at 07:48

I wonder if it's my PSU? It is a Superflower 1000 watt. It's a great psu, but have heard some Superflowers have gone DOA after a year or 2?

My specs

I7 6700k
Gigabyte z170 gaming 7
Corsair vengeance LED ram
EVGA 1080 FTW

This has never happened before

Thinking of getting a new psu.

More information is needed - has it shut off just the once? Did it restart ok? Made any hardware changes recently? Overclocking?

Simon Belmont · 3 Sep 2016 at 08:16

It's never shut off before. It won't restart at all. No hardware changes at all. CPU is 4.5 and has been that way since skylake came out. Never a issue before.

Well I know the problem now. Dead GPU.

Thought I would do a few things first before spending money on new psu. I take out the GPU and it works fine. I put GPU back in nothing.

RMA time

Dead 1080 FTW?

Ahh man that's gonna a pain in the bottom to get sorted quick with them being so new, still on backorder etc.

Good luck.

I know not happy. OCUK seem to have plenty of stock though

Unfortunately it seems to be a common problem with these cards, read somewhere they were RMA'ing them all but can't find where I read it. THIS on the EVGA forum though...

I called OCUK and they sent me a RMA# It's a brand new card too :mad:

I had the same issue with my original 1070 that had to be returned, I think it was the PSU though so am RMAing it next week. It was a Evga G2 Supernova 1000w so wasn't overloaded or anything!
