Here are some alternative phrasings for your message:

- My system specs include an i511400 processor, 16 GB RAM, NVMe SSD, M.2 Kingston 240GB HDD, RTX 3070 graphics, and a 650W MWE cooler.
- While playing Mortal Kombat 11, my PC restarted on its own—it hasn’t happened before.
- I tried everything: reinstalled Windows, removed all cables, reconnected everything, but now I’m curious about what caused it.
- There’s something unusual happening with my hardware lately.

I wouldn't be concerned unless it's occurred just once. If a trend appears, it's worth checking further. You likely don't have to reinstall Windows each time, which could complicate troubleshooting.

I attempted to download from a suspicious website, but it occurred during a GPU stability issue. While adjusting my setup, a ruler placed above the card likely touched a cable, possibly causing movement. The problem seemed immediate upon contact, and it reappeared shortly after playing MK11.

It seems a fresh installation was likely the best choice. Avoid touching or adjusting the PC while it runs. Consider using an alternative solution to address the sag without needing physical intervention.

Check if your PSU can handle the load or if the GPU is using too much power. Your setup shows high performance with good temperatures, but the wattage matters for stability.

I believe you’d do well in this situation. Just as long as it’s the isolated incident, there’s no cause for concern. Begin examining things closely only when you notice a trend.
