EVGA G2 for sure.

Just ordered the 750W, was going to go with the 650w, but for the same price and an extra 3 year warranty, why not? Plus I'm not dealing with sending in a rebate and the hassle that comes with it.

Thank you for the suggestion, the EVGA G2 is on the way!

So after testing with the new PSU, the PC does the same thing where it tries to start up then shuts back down (50%) (Doesn't reach Bios), however sometimes it will start up and then after a few minutes it will freeze (25%). There is also times where it does nothing and it works perfectly fine (20-25% of the time is all)

Is this the motherboard?
