I recently purchased computer components to create myself a computer that is good for my uses, however, after building it, I realized it had the flaw of turning off randomly (instantaneously as if the power switch is pressed off and on), sometimes when it was jostled and sometimes in completely random times without explanation. It seems to shut off momentarily and immediately attempts to restart, sometimes working to reboot my computer and other times dying again before reboot can happen. I did some research and found that most people have 1 of 2 problems, the Motherboard and the Ram sticks. However, those seemed to be only compatibility issues. I have a seasonic Series X 1050 W power supply and I have reason to believe that it is not the issue (because seasonics are seasonics).

Does anyone know if there are compatibility issues between msi z97 gaming 7 and g.skills trident x 2400's?
Also, can it possibly be something else?
