This issue does not always occur. Only sometimes and it can be very frequent or almost non existent.
My computer will shut down while gaming. Often times it will try to reboot but fails to do so. It gets stuck with all my LED fan lights on and one fan spinning (always the same fan) plus the cpu cooler fan spinning. Motherboards green power light is present. Not sure if GPU fans are spinning... I’ll have to check next time. I’ve checked the ram. Seems to be fine. No bent pins on CPU. All cables are plugged in and I often clean for dust. Computer is not overheating. No beeps and no BIOS when this issue occurs. My computer never beeps even on a good start up (not sure if normal/relevant).
I suspect the PSU or motherboard. But if it is the PSU... why can I game for hours sometimes and have no issues and then other times the computer tries to reboot... but fails (as mentioned previously).
i5-4670k
Asus z87 a mobo
16gbs ram
GTX 780 SC/ACX cooling
Corsair 600 PSU
Cryorig H7 heatsink
6 case fans
Corsair 460x case

Any insight would be much appreciated. I’d like to make a trip to Fry’s, but I don’t want to make a second and third trip
This is a 5yr old build
