I have an Asus A88X mobo with an A10 7700k CPU. I know it's not youngest setup, but these two could handle a lot of games in the last two years.
My problem is, that lately my PC suddenly shuts down every time in a while. I was thinking it might be the overheat of the CPU. It indeed went over 65 C while gaming so I bought a coolermaster fan and it solved the heat issue.
The sudden shut-down appeared again. When I had this during watching movie, I was suspecting that it was something else, not overheating. and apparently it wasn't bc of the heat. Right after the shut-down the temperature was like 45 C or something.
Last week I got a motherboard notification about the unstable PSU ( anti-surge). So I checked and rejoined the cables, and cleaned the PSU just in case. Didn't buy a new one yet.
So today I check the overclocking , set it back to 3.6Ghz for the standard value in BIOS, then I found the OC tuner option . Never heard of it, so I gave it a try.
in the very moment as I clicked on the OC tuner, the PC shut down immediately.
In theory the PSU should handle 500 W, but also I'm awared that this PSU is not best ( Approx 500)
So what could it be? Why does my PC got down?
Thanks
