My computer would always shut off at intensive moments, and I blamed it on overheating. I was testing with Furmark to see if my new OC was ok for my GPU, when immediately my computer shut off. I knew it wasn't because of heat because I checked the temps beforehand. How would I fix this? (Buying a new PSU isn't an option)

If it immediately shut off, how did you check the temps before hand ? The puter will react faster than you and if temps shoot up fast, it will be gone before you can read the temps.

Without knowing what's in your system, specifically, ....

Corsair Model CX600 for example allows one to make a diagnosis, Corsair 600 watt does not.

1. List all your components
2. Set all BIOS settings to default
3. Reset card settings to defaults
4. Download HWiNFO
5. Test CPU
a. Run a non-sythetic CPU stress test like RoG Real Bench (8 minute benchmark)
b. Record max Core temps and Vcore before and after test
6. Test GPUs
a. Run Furmark
b. Record max Core temps and Vcore before and after test

Post that info
