Your computer unexpectedly stops during a game.
Your computer unexpectedly stops during a game.
Hello, your PC has been functioning well before, but recently it suddenly shuts down during gameplay. After a short period, it restarts but the CPU fan light remains active even after booting Windows and launching Rainbow Six Siege. Some online sources suggest the CPU pins might be bent or the CPU may not be seated correctly, though this seems unusual. You’ve already checked your PC and are now in BIOS, where everything appears normal. If you experience crashes soon, it’s likely due to overheating or power issues. Let me know if you need further guidance.
Yes, we provide specifications and performance data for temperatures during operation.
If you don’t have any thermal compound, it’s okay to simply reinstall the cooler. The temperatures might drop, but it should still be acceptable. Just grab an affordable MX-4 if you can.
I own a Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, an RTX 3070 Ti graphics card, a MAG B650 Tomahawk Wi-Fi motherboard with 32GB DDR5 RAM. My system runs on a Wi-Fi adapter and has ample storage. CPU temperatures typically stay between 50-60°C in idle mode and rise to around 80-85°C during gaming.
He mentioned his PC was upgraded recently and was working well, so I think the issue might be with the power supply unit. Could you tell me the model and age of the PSU?
It might be overheating. How's your cooling system and temperature? 80°C is fine, but there could be spikes—watch it while you play.
