The computer shuts down repeatedly and then restarts.
I recently purchased an overclock bundle and am experiencing issues after playing for 30 minutes to an hour. My PC shuts off and restarts immediately. I’m unsure if the problem is due to overheating or a failing power supply.
The components in the bundle include:
- Intel Core i5 7600K "Kaby Lake"
- Asus Prime Z270-P
- 8GB DDR4 RAM
- Be quiet! Dark Rock 3
- MSI GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GAMING X 4GB GDDR5
- Power cool extreme mod 650W 80+
- Case: Coolermaster Glite 430
During testing, I recorded temperatures twice while the PC was powering off. The readings stayed at a maximum of 73°C on the box, with idle at 35°C and load at 79°C.
Thank you for any assistance you can provide; it would be greatly appreciated.
I think the PC shuts down when under load. Based on my experiences, the power supply seems to be the main problem. I suggest reseating all components on the motherboard and testing again. Also, make sure the CPU is fully seated in its socket.
