Failing PSU?

[Tortoise79]

1. I have not been playing MMO for a year or two. Recently decided to play back one MMO and found that my graphic card cannot support or at least keep running into error. Even with the very basic setting, my screen will freeze and go blank for a few sec, and then a notification will say "Display card stop respond and have recovered". I have no problem playing the MMO a year ago, however there are many major patches to the game over the past yr or so. Probably higher requirement or a failing GPU or even a PSU as what some website suggest.

2. Whenever I run bluestack to play mobile apps game such as Clash of Clan, I may find monitor flicker once a while (not frequent but it happen). Another possible sign of either GPU or PSU failing?

3. Now, my CMStorm Trigger mechanical keyboard may hang out of no reason even pc in idle mode (LED off and NUM, CAPS, SCR all lighted up). The only solution is to unplug the USB and replug it back to reset it. Again not frequent but a few times over the past few months.

4. And just now while running bluestack, my system suddenly restart. The error message after recover was "a power surge/break or something like".

Are all these signs of failing PSU? My system is about 2.5 yrs old although my usage daily is about 10 hours on average.

could be your motherboard or your power supply acting up... try bring it to distro if under warranty to have them take a look

My GPU wanna die already also will always hang although i dont game much

The symptoms occur once in a blue moon how to recreate to show them? Somemore is like multi different type of failing. Btw, my rig is a diy one.

Should be cool ba cos I run very minimum program. Mainly only watch video, surf net and play bluestack. Back then during my hardcore MMO days, I can feel the casing warm and fan spinning fast but since I stop gaming and run basic program, my system has been quiet and cool on the casing surface.
