Hello all,

(Please bear in mind I know very little about PC repair, I suck)

I just bought a new machine from OC and have been happily gaming the last couple if weeks.

2 days ago when playing Battlefleet Gothic the machine locked up with the most ear splitting sound ever. I restarted but the machine just repeatedly switched on and off every couple of seconds.

It did restart in the end so i carried on like normal, however games kept crashing and locking up the machine in the same way.
My drivers were all up to date so I checked for yellow exclamation marks in device manager, the only one was on my headphones (Razer Kraken), I unplugged the headphones and plugged them back in, the machine immediately crashed. Upon restart I tried to uninstall the kraken drivers, again the machine crashed.

Now when I switch the machine on the tower starts but none of my peripherals are switching on (monitor included). I tried hitting the reset cmos button but it didn't seem to do anything.

If anyone can help / advise I'd really appreciate it.

Oh I see. Thank you for the response, I don't have another at hand I'm afraid

The machine is only a few weeks old so still within warranty but what psu would you recommend instead?
