My computer shuts down when under heavy use, this occurs intermittently. It was quite an issue about two months ago, but it seems to have improved now. Details: i5 6500 B150 from ASUS, 6GB RAM from Gigabyte (two sticks at 8GB each, both at 2133MHz), Urano VX 650 with 80+ rating, 5 or 6 years old. GPU drivers were updated and the problem worsened. Anyone have suggestions on fixing it or should I consider taking it to a technician? Also, it also reports a 16GB memory issue.

It looks like you're asking about a power supply and its age. Could you provide more details or clarify your question? I'm here to help!

Urano vx 650 likely matches an 80+ bronze piece from around 5 to 6 years ago.

It's likely temperatures or the PSU are the main factors.

In idle mode on hwmonitor it displays elevated temperatures across the motherboard while other components remain normal. Updated February 19, 2023 by rafao

What are the most recent updates? Cleaning the motherboard, reapplying paste to the chipset, and swapping thermal pads are common tasks.
