software to isolate and test psu? | Overclockers UK Forums
Is there a site/program that can check if my current PSU can handle a potential new component?
I'm looking for software to test a PSU
I don't know about software, but there are tools like this:

More on reddit.comCan my power supply software be used to control other test instruments?
Yes, the PathWave BenchVue Complete Control Collection, which includes power supply software, among many other test instrument types such as function generators, digital multimeters (DMMs), oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and others, is a standardized PC software that helps to configure a wide range of instrument controls and measurements that all organizations and test teams need - to ensure accuracy and productivity. You could ultimately reduce your overall system bring-up time and increase team productivity by implementing standardized software across your organization.
What is the easiest way to create a custom automated test sequence with a power supply software?
The easiest and quickest way to do this is to use the power supply software's Test Flow application to save time and achieve faster results—all without ever having to write a computer program. The intuitive drag-and-drop interface in Test Flow enhances your workflow with the ability to create custom, automated test sequences, a task that typically requires days using traditional programming languages. Moreover, you can obtain a deeper understanding of your data using Test Flow’s built-in analysis tools, which log and graph with selectable x-axis and y-axis formats and much more. With the Test Flow capabilities, you can create test sequences without any programming on your power supply software.
What programming language can I use to control a power supply software?
There are many programming languages, such as Python, MATLAB, C#, and C++. The easiest and quickest to implement will be to use power supply software, such as the PathWave BenchVue power supply software, that allows for instrument control by a simple drag-and-drop option.

Sounds like heat, especially if the fans get louder. Try putting the computer in an open area, and run the system with the side panel off / open and see if you still get "freezing." If there's dust in there, blow it out thoroughly. I usually use an air compressor at about 40 PSI to clean my electronics out.
Power supply issues usually cause direct reboots or no boot at all, in my experience.
One way to test your power supply is by unplugging non-essential components such as extra hard drives, external USB drives, etc. and running only with the core components.
One other check you might do is go into your computer's BIOS and look at the voltage readings of the 3.3v, 5v, and 12v. If they are really high or really low (+/-.3v, +/-.5v, or +/-0.5v respectively), then you might indeed have a power supply problem.
Really, the easiest way is to just swap it out for another, known good unit. It takes extensive time & effort (and equipment) to do a real good job of testing one, and if you're just watching (not recording/reviewing) the data stream, you could very easily miss an anomaly.
