It seems your device is running hot. Would you like some tips to cool it down?
Thanks for sharing your experience. It seems your new setup is handling the heat differently—your CPU and GPU are drawing direct air from the side panel even when idle, causing random restarts. This isn’t related to power supply issues or overheating. You can play games for hours without trouble.
the issue continues and i notice my pc still doesn't start sometimes. this occurred twice after a random reboot—i unplugged power and connected the cpu fan to the motherboard's fan connector, and it booted again. odd since i've always used the fan controller without problems and never touched the cpu fan connector before.
