For the past couple days my computer has been shutting off on it's own. I've done some research and I think it may be due to the CPU overheating, but I'm not sure. As of now, it's idling around 129 F. (54 C). Games cause it to jump up to the mid 140's. around 147 F (64 C) was the highest it reached. I've got an AMD FX-6300 Six Core Processor (3.5 GHz), are those normal temps? I checked inside the case, there's a little dust on the heat sink, but it's not too bad. (to my knowledge) There's a fan directly above the CPU, and another in the back. Both work fine. I've got a ginormous case and some OCD-quality cable management, so overall airflow isn't a problem.
I don't think it's a power supply issue, but just in case, I've got an Antec VP450. When I was building the computer, I was told that even though the power supply may seem a little weak, they said that It was a quality one and should hold up.
