your pc has stopped working properly after using it at work. when you return, the screen goes black unexpectedly and the fans speed up to maximum. it seems like a power issue might be causing this. you mentioned replacing the PSU last year with an RM550X, but you're unsure what to do next. consider checking the power supply connections, testing the PSU, or consulting a technician for further diagnosis.

More detailed specifications would be useful. Assuming the power supply works well seems sensible.

This might be the 2018 revision of the PSU, possibly nearing the end of its life. Verify your voltages using HWMonitor and confirm they stay within ATX guidelines (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATX#:~:text=Generally%2C supply voltages must be within ±5% of their nominal values at all times). It seems these units come with a 10-year warranty, and if you request a replacement, they should provide an updated model—just ensure all cables are replaced since Corsair has recently altered their modular connector layout.
