I just upgraded my GPU, CPU, and PSU, but sometimes when playing certain games it restarts after 5 or 10 minutes. For my GPU I changed from a GeForce 2060 to a GeForce 4060 Ti, for my CPU from a Ryzen 5 5600x to a Ryzen 9 5900x, and only upgraded the PSU because I thought my CPU was limiting performance. I increased the power supply from 650w to 1000w, but it kept doing the same thing. Eventually, I reverted to the old parts and it stopped working until I replaced the CPU with the new one using all the old components. Now I’m unsure why it won’t work with the new setup. These are my current specs: motherboard Gigabyte B550 UD AC, CPU Ryzen 9 5900x, GPU GeForce RTX 4060 Ti WindForce OC 8G, PSU Corsair RM1000e, RAM four 16g Corsair Vengeance sticks.

Take out the two you mentioned and follow the new instructions, your computer should function again. If not, remove one stick and keep one inside.

I put all the new components back in and the old CPU is functioning properly now, so I think the issue isn't the RAM. It might be related to the CPU itself, but I'm not sure why since I just purchased this one from Micro Center.

I looked at all the pins and they seem fine, so maybe it's just a faulty CPU. But that wouldn't explain why it shuts off randomly instead of working completely.
