It has been roughly a week since assembling my PC and from yesterday I started experiencing problems where the screen goes black and the computer restarts on its own. The fans on both the GPU and CPU still spin, but they remain active. I haven’t noticed any consistent pattern to when this occurs. I’m not overclocking anything, I’ve reinstalled drivers to rule out that, checked all connections and power supplies for damage or loose plugs. It’s unclear if there’s something obvious missing at the moment. Here’s my parts list if it might help (https://pcpartpicker.com/user/JBarney92/saved/D9wBvK) and I’ve updated the BIOS to the newest version.

What is the cooling system like? It could be overheating.

Mostly the temperatures I observed using both monitors for the CPU were around 78, which seems normal. For the GPU, I thought it was between 65 and 70 degrees at its highest. Even though it might have been risky, I ran some benchmark tests to confirm there wouldn’t be any issues.
