I've got a problem, after installing a new HX1000 Plat.
My PC has now suddenly, just started to randomly freeze and become unresponsive.
The PC screen freezes or turns black. The keyboard and mouse RGBs go out, but the fans and motherboard LEDs still work.
The reset and power buttons don't work either. I can't cause this problem to occur on demand. It happens if browsing, watching a video or gaming.
My only solution is to switch the PSU off and on again, then I can power up my PC again.
I can only figure that the PSU is tripping.
The system has been stable for years before with an RM750 PSU.
The only difference is that the HX1000 is running on a 2x 12v rail, and I used 2x PCIE cables to the gtx 1080, instead of the old single cable with dual plugs.
Could it be that the PSU is faulty?
TIA
