if the pc doesn't go on at all , just take out the gfx card and see if the pc
runs then. if it doesn't then you know you gfx card need to be replaced.
I think its time , replacing gfx card every 6 years is goot.

I haven't paid more than 3k for my pc upgrades and I only upgrade once every...
5 years or so.

The most likely culprit is the power supply itself.
There is another possibility... booting up in Linux a diagnostic splash screen
appeared. Usually that only happens when something is about to die.
There was a "display" somthingorother fail.
So it may well be graphics card.
6k console plays kof just fine.
6k pc starts to chug to a standstill. (Not counting dvd drive and casing)... on
windowed mode, with background animation off.
Sigh.

Not sure how that one works, Nic.
Well, as "Indian Call Centre Consultant" as "turn it off and on" again sounds,
that would actually be a good start. Give the pc a restart to see if the
problem persists.
If you game for a while again and it does that, then your PSU may be too weak
for prolonged gaming (which is kinda weird... that should happen from the
beginning.. I don't know if a card draws more power the longer it is being
used, but I suppose it also depends on how you are using it).
Or you graphics card could be faulty.
Or a myriad of other reasons. LOL. Sorry, just trying to pinpoint the error.
