Your power supply is not compatible with Haswell CPU you have, see the Seasonic website here and note that your model does not have a "Haswell-ready" logo. I'd strongly recommend a better power supply anyway, you have a low-draw system but you have completely locked yourself out of any upgrades. On higher-quality models its okay to push them near their rated capacity, but that model isn't meant to actually supply 300W. In the meantime you can try updating the motherboard and videocard BIOSes, making sure CPU power-save settings are disabled in the BIOS, and installing the latest Intel Chipset INF and Rapid Storage Technology (RST) drivers, but I would strongly recommend replacing the power supply.

Thank you! Something like this would be good, right? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...ID=3938566&SID= Satire Forum Mom fucked around with this message at 02:13 on Dec 21, 2014 |

I've had this problem for years across multiple PCs so I'd love to hear what fixes it (if you do manage to).
