Random shutdown

kachep — Tue, 04 Mar 2025 06:57:08 +0800

Noob guy here..

I have a very old PC.. using q9500 cpu, gtx 550 ti GPU and 6gb ram. Win 10.

My problem is that my PC randomly shutdown. When it does, my GPU fan will spinning normally (not in turbo). Will need to off power entirely before it can boot again. Sometimes need to take out the GPU and re-insert back.
At first I thought it was due to overheating while playing games. Replaced the thermal paste and run the GPU stress test. No issue.
Recently it still happen again. Even just browsing the internet.
The GPU driver are latest. I even let the case to open entirely.
Need help narrowing the issue. Does my GPU is the culprit? If it is was it worth it to get refurbish GPU from shoppee?

n95 8gb

kachep — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 14:49:31 +0800

Hi guys,

2 days ago. I bought a nokia n95 8gb from someone on the street worth rm150. I ask 'why so cheap?' and he says his parents is sick and urgently need some money for 'balik kg'. Without doubting him, i gave him the money and walk away with the phone which very look a like with the original.
As i reached home, only then i notice that the internal memory only got 500kb instead of 8gb claimed. One of my friends says that i might has bought a clone/fake from china.
question is 'how do i know that im buying a fake one?' everything looks very same with the original. and if its true its a fake one is there anyway i can upgrade the memory? just to make my day a little happier..

I heard a phone from china before but i didn't know that they're faking other phone as well.
