    Question Prebuilt PC died after 3 months. How to prevent re-occurance?

    Hello everyone, thanks for the comments. I just got my PC back from MSI and the work ticket says they replaced my CPU. I'm assuming that the CPU was faulty to begin with as it's a liquid cooled system, so I wouldn't expect it to overheat.

    Yeah, when I had it in the shop we tried swapping the RAM and it still crashed.

    Question Prebuilt PC died after 3 months. How to prevent re-occurance?

    I was getting a mix of "kernel security check failure" and "iqrl not or less equal". When I took it into the shop, it wasn't bsoding anymore but just rebooting everytime the windows logo appeared after the shop tried installing it.

    Question Prebuilt PC died after 3 months. How to prevent re-occurance?

    Yes that is the motherboard in my unit. Maybe I wasn't clear when I said I RMA'd it. The entire PC is still under warranty so I sent the entire PC back. The only thing I would say to the 750W MSI PSU being sufficient is that all Ubisoft games made my PC turn off when launching. This would...

    The 1000W PSU is an MSI MPG A1000G PCIE 5. Not sure about the 750W. It came with the MSI prebuild and I already RMA'd it. It's an MSI branded pre-build. I bought it from a retail store. Here's the exact model: MSI Aegis RS RTX4080 13th Gen Gaming Desktop 13NUG-425US

    Question Prebuilt PC died after 3 months. How to prevent re-occurance?

    So I bought a prebuilt MSI gaming PC and it died after 3 months. I am trying to figure out what happened and how I can prevent it from happening again. Specs: CPU: Intel Core™ i7-13700KF Motherboard: MSI Z690 CPU Cooling: Liquid 240 Graphics: NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4080 16GB GDDR6 Memory: 32GB...
