Good day,
I say gpu's because I only use one however I have switched them out as part of the troubleshooting. They both overheat as soon as I begin Playing WoW. I have the build and it is very recent, things have been fine. Also been playing wow for 6 years now and only had an issue on an old build that was corrected.
Anyways, GPU fires up to 50 c and above when wow comes on now, and computer shuts down...kinda sounds like psu but the gpu is the only temp rising. When idle temp is 35c
What I have done:
Cleaned off heat sink and applied cooler master thermo paste.
Switched out gpu's: one a Radeon 6800 one a Radeon 7700, both overheat.
I have HW monitor and speed fan, they both show the same temps.
I am in power saving mode.
I do not own any other tools.
My build:
Intel Core i5 4430 @ 3.00GHz Haswell 22n Technology
465GB ATA ST500DM002-1BD14 SCSI Disk Device (SATA)
DELL U2312HM (1920x1080@60Hz) 1024MB
ATI AMD Radeon HD 7700 Series (XFX Pine Group)
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. B85M-E (SOCKET 1150)
6.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz (9-9-9-24)
PSU:
Cooler Master RS-700-ACAA-B1 Active PFC
i700 700W Power Supply 120mm fan
ATX 12V V2.31 Single Rail-55A
90-120 / 220-264 Vac / 10-5A / 50-60Hz
Dual +12V outputs MTBF up to 100,000 Hours
What do I need to do to verify if psu is failing? Should this be in that forum if it is the GPU that is overheating?
Thanks in advance
