Basically every since like 2 days ago my computer has started to randomly restart out of no where, it's like the power is just switched off then it turns on again as if nothing happened. My specs for my Comp are:
i5-4590 cpu @ 3.3 ghz
1 x 8gb ram - Corsair Vengeance
mobo: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. Z97-K (SOCKET 1150)
Nvidia gtx 750
windows 10
Cooler Master: Thunder 600W psu
1tb hdd
I have tried to self diagnose and I have discovered that the following things are ok:
No overheating (According to SpeedFan the temp of my GPU and CPU remain stable (below 50) but I notice that the heat sink on my motherboard gets very very hot)
No dust in fans
Drivers are updated to most recent version (gtx)
Note this only happens when I put my computer under high stress, and it most commonly occurs when playing video games like cs go.
In the case that it's a hardware fault I have tried the following things:
I unplugged the gpu and used the integrated gpu on the cpu
I replaced my ram with my brothers ram from his Alienware x51
I changed the power socket used
I tried all of these things one by one and the problem persisted. So I don't think fault is caused by gpu or ram. The temperature on everything is normal and there are no faults with the fan. I have not tried switching the hdd or psu so I think the problem is coming from one of those two components (it could still be one of the other components like gpu if what I did above does not correctly diagnose that the component is running correctly). I am not sure on what to do because I don't want to buy a new psu and find that it was never the problem. Can you please help me diagnose the problem so that I can fix my pc. Note that this occurs like 5 minutes into playing games like cs go or call of duty on the computer
EDIT: I downloaded Speccy and it says my MOBO temperature is 114 degrees celcius, is this an error due to lack of sensor or real?
Everything else (CPU GPU Storage) all are 30 degrees and I am not currently running anything. I do notice that my heat sink on my mobo is very hot, possibly the reason?
