New PSU overheating, pc shutdown.

'sup guys

I bought a cx 450 from Corsair to replace my 4 year old cx 430 because my PC was showing strange behavior after the purchase of a GTX 1050 ti (pink / red artifacts, PC restarting randomly, among others)

Anyway, my Cx 450 arrives, then I install it, everything ok, Pc booted normally then i went to play cs: go - exactly 1: 20 hours passes and out of nowhere my PC shuts off, I try to start it and nothing

After opening the case I notice that the PSU is very hot, to the point of being annoying to the touch (i risk to say a 50 ° celsius) finally, I turn off and on, on the psu Power button, my pc turns on but does not show video all fans running normally (APARENTLY the psu fan is spinning too), and when I tried to shut It off, It didnt let me, so i had to turn the psu Button off, case Power button wouldnt work.

I am in need of assistance because I'm in tremendous fear of having picked up a bad PSU and burned my video card that has not even been used for 2 months.

What would be the cause of this shutdown, the psu may be faulty? Or some other cause?

Pc configuration:

FX 6300 stock Ga-GA-78LMT-S2 GTX 1050 ti Galax HD 1 tb 7200 rpm 2x4 GB ram 1333 MHz DDR3 1 fan 120mm-1 fan 80mm Standard keyboard / mouse Pc connected only to the line filter, the same plugged into the outlet directly. Standard cd / dvd recorder

  • (Psu connections all checked, no errors found, I've already set up many pcs so I'm fairly secure about this)
  • (Vga and processor temps are optimum (60 ° and 35 ° celsius respectively) during the time before shutdown)

Thank you in advance for your help.

Ps: After writing this cry for help, another attempt to start the PC, this time with success, boot and video all right, but I continue to fear using this machine, at least with this PSU.

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
