Device unexpectedly powered down by computer.
Computer stopped working suddenly one day. It didn’t stay running past about two hours of idle or shut down right away when I started any games. Temperatures stayed under 50°C on the spec monitor, CPU voltage was stable on the CPU-Z tool, and the second monitor showed no issues. I’ve replaced the motherboard and tried booting with one RAM stick at a time, but it still powers off. It’s now time to install new parts—32GB 3200MHz RAM, a 750W MSAI PSU, and a brand new SSD. I’ve reset Windows, reinstalled drivers, and need help getting it back online quickly so I can continue coding at full performance.
You've checked every part of your PC and ruled out software problems—maybe another issue exists? It could be a damaged PSU cable or something similar. Go through all connected components and see if fixing them resolves the problem. Alternatively, it might just be a bad luck factor.
They eliminated every possibility they could think of without having anything else to test. I figured it was a power supply that failed, which is why I replaced it. It shut down and started acting up, so I suspected the motherboard next. But then it kept going, and I realized it might be time for a fresh build. I’m planning to get brand new components one by one until everything fits together properly. Eventually, I’ll replace the CPU and install a new board, but at least it’ll be updated.
