Need to check the power supply first before looking at the CPU specs.

It looks like a shaky vertical video showing a screen or keyboard powering down. This is quite a clear example, which is good news—thankfully no technical details were shared. It probably wouldn’t have simplified our task.

I've already reset it, but it stopped working after a short time and then failed again.

I'm new to this setup, trying the i7 4790 RX 580 with an i7 16Gb DDR3 cooler. I reset it once, it functioned well at first but then failed again after a while.

Here are some suggestions to investigate:
- Determine if the issue occurs during idle or only when under heavier stress, such as playing games or watching long videos. Compare scenarios like streaming a movie versus leaving it running, or using Cinebench vs. furmark.
- If the problem appears only when under load, verify whether it happens across all loads or is limited to CPU-heavy or GPU-heavy tasks.
- Try testing with just one RAM stick. This can help identify if a faulty stick is causing the issue.
- Consider upgrading your power supply to a newer model; an old PSU may fail under stress.
- Inspect the PSU’s fan—damaged fans might shut off due to overheating protection.
- Monitor temperatures for components like CPU and GPU. A failing fan, pump, or degraded thermal paste could be the cause.
