Hey guys, here is my situation....
I have all of a sudden been getting full power off crashes where my computer, right in the middle of doing something, will power itself off as if someone cut the power to it, and then it will automatically reboot itself. I have built this system along with many others before, and this is the first time I have had this issue. Here is my setup, brought to you by PC parts picker:
http://pcpartpicker.com/user/liberty610/saved/#view=G48RsY
The only thing that list might not show, and I am not sure if it is relevant or not, but I have 2 video capture cards I have installed on the board. The 1080 graphics card is is the first 16x slot, I have a Hauppauge Colossus card in the the second 16x slot, and then an Aver Media Live Gamer HD card in the 3rd 16x slot.
I put this system together about a month ago and have not had any issues with it, but yesterday and today, doing simple web browsing tasks, it shut off right in the middle of a session I was in, and booted itself back up. Once yesterday, and once again today. No blue screen error, just an erupt power off and then it reboots. The first time it happened, I thought the power went out. But no, this was an erupt power off/crash.
I do a little bit of gaming, lots of audio recording for bands and what not, and video rendering (I run a small project studio). I know that all my fans are running fine, so I do not think this is a heat issue. Almost all the parts as far as cooling goes are all knew, and I can look in the case and see them all running. I don't think this is a temp issue, as I build my towers to have proper cooling. I am running CPU hardware monitor, and everything looks ok to me as far as temps go, so I do not think its a temp issue. The two times this happened the last 2 days, I was not doing anything heavy at all. Just e-mail and web site checking. Nothing more.
Can anyone point me in a direct to try and diagnose this problem? I bought the motherboard, processor, ram, SSD, all brand new. I am wondering if it could be the power supply dying out on me, as it is a few years old, but that's all I can think of. I have not cleared out my memory dumps with CCleaner yet, so if that will need to be posted, please guide me in how to do that and I will post it.
Thanks in advance for any help!
