You just built a new PC and it keeps shutting down during games like Fortnite, even though the power light stays on. You checked temperatures, RAM, and updated drivers, but the event viewer only shows an unexpected shutdown. No clear cause yet—what do you think?

You should definitely go for a quality unit. The most affordable option I’d suggest is the CX550 Corsair. Avoid the modular version—it doesn’t perform as well.

I would replace that faulty power supply with a better one.

This description could work better as "Rose Willion LEPTON 600 Modular 600W Power Supply (80 PLUS GOLD Certified)."

EVGA does produce decent graphics cards, though their power supplies aren’t top-notch. Corsair or Cooler Master tend to offer better quality here. Avoid skimping on your GPU—get it right.
