its Sentey Xplus power 725w but I already changed the psu same issue..I guess its the mb that causing me this but I really want to fix it..I forgot to tell you when my pc shuts down it wont start unless I use a dryer to warm a down right spot of the motherboard..I spend days trying to figure out the issue and fix it

Hard to tell because when the PSU is that poor , I looked it up , has the specs of a 500w to 550 watt , it's not close to 725w it's more like 550w , I over estimated at 600w.

You need decent power to diagnose any further.

Sudden shutdows are usually temp or power related.
