Pc shuts down midway through the game. Everyone seems okay so far. I tried it again and it stopped after a few minutes. The case fans were running but the CPU fan wasn’t. I turned it off, removed the CPU fan, and checked the thermal paste—found it was completely dried out. This happened before, and someone suggested re-seating the CPU. I did that last month, but the paste still didn’t dry. Now there’s a lot of dust, so I’m unsure what to do next. My system specs are: Ryzen 7 5700G, RTX 3060, 1TB SSD, 32GB RAM, 650W power supply.

Check your system for overheating using hwinfo. Switch to logging mode and let the process run until the PC restarts. Share the generated log file with me.
