I guess MSI GTX 970/AMD 380 will get me through few years and hardware will upgrade by the time 970 isn't sufficient enough.

Do you guys have any recommendations for online shops that sells pc parts? Buying hardware in Finland is really expensive.

Did some spring PC cleaning, installed some new fans and reapplied some higher quality thermal paste. My fans are pretty quiet now (only audible in very quiet environments) and temperatures are down 5 degrees under load (67-63 on CPU and 83-77 on GPU). I also placed my PC on some kind of a pedestal (read: my cd trays) to raise it above my two monitors. I'm pretty happy with the looks and the blue colour scheme in general :)

About low/mid-30's for CPU and high 40's up to 50 for GPU. Note though that I run my CPU fan at a constant 1000 rpm because apparently it is so quiet there is no point in running it any slower. Removing and reapplying the new thermal paste did not seem to change that much in that regard.

Yo I'm having computer trouble pls help

So when I'm playing Dark Souls 3 (and only DS3) occasionally the PC will just reset, usually when loading/rendering, with no error messages or anything. Then last night it wouldn't turn back on again, checked the mobo error code and it said I needed to reseat the RAM, which I did and it worked again. But afterwards when I tried to play DS3 it reset again and the fans went crazy for about 5 seconds or so. This morning it wouldn't start and when I checked the error code it was the same problem that happened when I first built it; I had to replug the mobo and it turned on.

I ran the Windows memory testing thing and there were no problems, so I suspect a fault with the PSU or the wiring, but I dunno. The PSU is good quality and two months old so I don't see why it would be faulty. Maybe it could be due to insufficient power when under heavy load with all the USB **** I have plugged in?

I'm terrible at this, but how are your temperatures? Sounds like overheating to me.
