My computer will randomly turn off for no apparent reason, I originally thought it was my psu but I replaced that and it still turns off I also ran memtest86 and it didn't detect any errors I also don't think it would be my gpu but I'm not shutting out that idea.
I have found that my computer is more likely to turn off while having discord or a game running.
Does anyone have an answer to this or a watt of testing my cpu/motherboard/gpu/hard drive
Specs:
Radeon r9 380
Amd fx-6300
2x4gb corsair vengeance ram
Evga supernova 550 g3 psu
64 bit Windows 10
I'm not sure the brand of the motherboard
 
Solution
Are you running the stock heatsink that came with your 6300? if so, it might be time to replace it with a hyper 212 or something. My sons pc had the same issue a few years back and it is the same cpu as you have. pulled the old heatsink off and put a hyper t-2 in and it's worked flawlessly since.
