Review the temperature readings possibly indicating a minor CPU cooler issue. If all checks pass, proceed to examine system data collection sets via perfmon. On the left, navigate to data collection sets, select "System," right-click each diagnostic and launch them sequentially. Once completed, enter Windows key + R, type "perfmon /report" and press Enter. If the output is green, continue. Next, obtain crystal disk information from https://crystalmark.info/en/software/crystaldiskinfo to assess hard drive health. For RAM health, download MemTest86 from https://www.techpowerup.com/memtest64/. If everything appears normal, proceed to stress-test with Prime95 for Intel or AMD (also applicable for Intel). Afterward, run dxdiag.exe via Run dialog (Windows key + R), explore the tabs, and confirm stability. Click the computer properties, check Device Manager for any red or yellow indicators. Should be clear, move to step 8: download OCCT from https://www.ocbase.com/. If all signs are green, download Furmark at https://geeks3d.com/furmark/ and Unigine Heaven at https://benchmark.unigine.com/heaven. Execute both simultaneously without timing conflicts, then perform multiple stress tests while monitoring performance and temperatures. Finally, run the Intel Burn Test at https://www.techpowerup.com/download/intelburntest/. For AMD systems, use Prime95 as well. If everything functions correctly, revisit the forum post and suggest further adjustments.
A popular free tool for tracking thermals is HWinfo. The other option, OCT, is easier to use.
It seems the mainboard might be the issue, though it's possible other parts were affected too. As mentioned before, testing your components on another system could help. It's odd you can benchmark fine but struggle with games—maybe performance varies depending on the setup. A heavy load always puts a strain.
Throughout this entire period, nothing stopped functioning or froze, and there were no extreme temperatures. So you should verify that all PSU cables are securely attached and not misaligned. If everything looks normal, it might just be a coincidence—your PC could have turned off on its own. To prevent any additional costs, consider using it for a few more days.
