PC shuts off PSU, Heating, MoBo issue??

BOWDO68 · Sep 27, 2015

I built my first computer this January and its been running fine since. My PC will run almost forever on the home screen but it has been turning off lately during games. By turning off i mean like the power has been killed completely (it does turn on straight after this). Sometime it happens 15-20 minutes through and sometimes it will happen after an hour and a half through. The main game i've been playing is Planetary Annihilation Titans( if this helps, when i have more planets it shuts down more quickly). It first started doing this when i replaced the FX stock fan with the Cooler Master D92 the reason why i got a new fan is because. At first i thought it was a heating issue but i have replaced the thermal paste over 4 times properly. During games when its not turning off i have used HWMonitor and check the temps.
Mid-way through games:
-CPU 55 Max.
-GPU 64 Max.

I've checked the event logs and it has come up with; Kernel event ID 41 error "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first.
(Would heating issues cause this?)
Specs:
FX-8350 4.0 Ghz 8-Core
Cooler Master D92
ASRock 980DE3/U3S3 R2.0 AM3/AM3+
GigaByte R9 280 OC 3gb Windforce
Western Digital Blue 1TB SATA3 HDD
Corsair VS650w
G Skill 8G(1x8G) DDR3 1600MHZ

I did bring the PC into a repair shop they did Memtest's and driver updates but all they could tell me was my new CPU cooler fans have pushed the power consumption over the edge. The CPU cooler is rated at 2.88W Max and i cant see how that can do it. Someone please help my PC is unplayable and I'm in my school holdiays and I got nothing to play.

Could be a faulty PSU not being able to properly supply your system with power, I would run a test if you have the resources. If you have the old heatsink replace your coolermaster with it and run your system and see if it still has the problem. Also if you have a friend who has a spare PSU you could borrow I would recommend that to.

Would the 2.88W fans actually push it over or is the actual power supply broken.

2.88W is nothing, but i do not know. Try using your CPU fan or a different PSU.
