Hello Everyone, My PC shuts down unexpectedly, often right after turning on and sometimes while playing games or during browsing. It's tough to identify the exact cause. All settings are set to default, XMP is active. The problem vanishes when I turn off PBO and returns when I enable it again.
PBO is causing instability. The issue might lie in the memory profile settings. With only a 3060 model, it’s best to skip PBO. You seem fine on a stable system with PBO disabled and XMP enabled.
However, my CPU reaches 178W during overclocking while the GPU peaks at 192W, which is just 57% of the total power supply. That suggests the problem isn’t with the PSU.
