My PC shuts down every other day. I dont turn my PC off every night. I give it a courtesy restart every now and again.

I'll be doing something, like playing WoW and watching Netflix and all of a sudden my PC will just shut down. Like all four of my monitors will go dark, my LED lit razer keyboard and mouse will go dark, headset unlinks, everything goes down. But i go look at my tower...and it's still on. My Gtx 1070's LEDs are still on, fans are still spinning, i can still hear the PC is on...

It's not restarting, because i sat there and waited for 5 minutes without a peep from the PC.

I have no idea what the hell is going on right now.

Specs:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 1700 Processor 8 cores 16 threads

CPU Cooler: Corsair H60 Liquid Cooling 120mm

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4 DRAM 3000MHz

SSD: 256GB Samsung

HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB HDD

External HDD: 4tb seagate

MOBO: ASUS Prime B350-Plus AMD Ryzen AM4 DDR4

Case: Corsair Carbide Series 100R Mid Tower Case

GPU:MSI Gaming GeForce GTX 1070 8GB GDDR5 SLI DirectX 12

PSU: Corsair Power Supplies , TXM 550W

Headset: Corsair Gaming VOID Surround Gaming Headset, Carbon

Webcam: Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920

Can anyone give me some insight into why my PC is just randomly shutting down or...not shutting down but..losing..power..maybe? So lost.

 
Solution
If you have access to another psu try plugging that in to your board and see if that is your problem. Did you add anything new recently? Did you update drivers and bios? Try restoring back to an earlier date to see if it clears up the problem. Another step is to go to power settings and disable fast pc start up. You do have a lot of equipment hooked up to a minimal power supply, although its rated at 550w it is only rated for 140w for peripherals.
