My PC is randomly shutting down even under moderate load. No bsod, no reports on WhoCrashed, shutting off completely. Ill leave specs below.
I put a new HD in the other day (WD black 1tb) after switching out my 2 tb WB black that was starting to make clunking sounds only after a month. The random shut down DID happen on my 2tb but very rarely so I never bothered to look into it. It shuts down every time I do anything halfway extensive now. I did notice on task manager If Im downloading a game on steam and browsing the internet my disk process will jump between 70% and 99%, not sure if this is normal.
I checked temps after 10 minutes of gaming. My CPU reaches 70c, GPU 73c.
The fact that this has happened on both HD's leads me to think It's a psu issue. I did a memory diagnostic so I dont think Its my RAM. I dont have much knowledge on computer hardware though. Should also add I cant bypass a cpu fan error when starting up without ingoring fan speed in bios. HWMonitor and Speedfan both read around 4000RPM. Here are my specs and thanks for any replies!
