I just replced my motherboard after the old one died. Everything seemed to be going well until it shut down. Thinking it was a random update i just started it back up. Then it kept happening but i just couldnt reproduce it. I thought it was overheating, but it only got to 40c . I replaced the thermal paste and then it got cooler but still was shutting off. Ive looked for answers but everywhere says its the PSU but i just was using it less than 24hours ago. Is there a way the motherboard could of broke the PSU when the mobo died? My build is
-Asus M5A97 R2.0
-AMD FX 8320 stock heatsink/fan
-16gb of GSKILL ripjaws x RAM
-GTX 660 ti GPU
-Rosewill Green Series RG630-S12 630W
Like i said EVERYTHING was working perfect before the old mobo died. But now it seems to shut off randomly. Its doing it less now, but still happening. I can play a game but as soon as the game ends itll turn off anywhere from 10s-5mins later. But not always. Ive read that it could be a WIN7 problem and i should reinstall. Does that sound like it could be an issue. Before i run all the way back to the store to replace the MB/PSU? Thanks.
