Hi.
ive purchased a q6600 and a gigabyte GA-n650 sli motherboard, along with 2gb oz ram.
sometimes the PC with start ok, sometimes it spins up, then shuts down.It did hang during bootup on the bios screen whilst tring to seek drives,but doesnt appear to be doing that now.
The power supply is an Enermax 535w with 34A total 12v.
i have only 1 hard drive, 1dvdrw, a creative audigy and a 1x 7900gt,2 standard fans, 1 usb mouse, i ps2 keyboard.
Once booted the voltage on the 12v is 12.42v, lowest it goes to is 12.36v
Im trying to sort out weather its the PSU or the new motherboard,ram or CPU.
I would have thought the 535w would have been enough ( as i tried a x300 in there and the problems i had didnt go away)
ive run it with the absolute bare minimum ( motherboard ,cpu,ram,x300) and still the problems persisted.
before throwing £100+ on it with a psu, is there anything im missing?
many thanks
steve
