Hey there! I purchased a prebuilt from CyberPowerPC about a year ago without any problems, but after relocating my system, it appears to crash frequently after roughly half an hour without a BSOD. It tries to restart itself, but only activates a few of the aesthetic lights around the build and nothing else. I’m considering overheating or power supply issues, though I’m not sure. The fans seem to spin properly, and this behavior started after moving.

I’ve experimented with various solutions so far and am still uncertain. Once I get it back online, it works fine.

POWERSUPPLY: 300 Watts - Regular SFX Power Supply
This unit doesn’t just resemble an unbranded power supply, it also performs poorly for this setup. The new location might offer reduced voltage, and the PSU won’t make up for that.

Would replacing the PSU work well with a trustworthy option, or would I be in trouble if the new place has lower voltage? I'm not very confident on this topic.

It's worth noting I didn't face this problem at the previous visit.

A reliable PSU with a large capacity should handle significant voltage fluctuations effectively.
