Hi,
I've been using a Cooler Master 600W (forgot the specific model name) for past 3 years, and it's been showing problems ever since i got it repaired by a local guy as a result of a failed overclocking attempt (I'm not much of a techie myself; plus it was out of warranty). It makes a shrieking sound (loud one) even when i run lesser hardware intensive applications like Dreamweaver (I'm a we developer). Gaming is out of question. I have a fairly solid rig (AMD 1055T X6 2.8GHZ[stock heatsink, Arctic Silver 5 thermal paste] with Gigabyte 880GMA-UD2H motherboard, MSI R7770 1GB DDR5 graphics card, Corsair 2X4GB 1600MHZ DDR3 RAM, Cooler Master Elite 310 cabinet and Acer S230HL Full HD monitor) but still i can't play games due to the reason which i think is a faulty power supply. I keep the system clean of dirt (air blower after every 2 weeks). Now I'm thinking of buying a new power supply along with a new heatsink for CPU, an additional fan and may be an Intel combo after a couple of months. Please suggest me a good and stable power supply around 4000, along with a heatsink around 3000 and additional cooling fan (given that it could fit into my Cabinet). I enjoy occasional gaming on my PS3 but just like many out there, I'm also a graphics freak. The sheer amount of details excites me. Plus what's the point of owning a gaming rig (even mid-range) if you don't get to utilize it's potential.
Looking forward for your kind responses.
Cheers!
