Computer stops working unexpectedly
Device was operating normally until one day it stopped and wouldn't restart. Discovered the PSU was dead, replaced it, but still faced issues with prolonged operation—sometimes over two hours. After installing a new motherboard, performance remained inconsistent, lasting more than two hours before failing again. Even after swapping out components like hard drives, RAM, GPU, and HDMI, the same problems persisted. Thermal paste application resolved temperatures within 45°C under load. I've tried various fixes online, but others with similar issues reset Windows, reinstalled drivers, and downloaded updates. Current setup includes an Intel i7-6700k processor, Z170 Asus Pro Gaming motherboard, 16GB RAM, EVO II X500 500GB SSD, WD Blue 1000GB HDD, Gigabyte RX570 8GB, and Windows 10 Pro.
