So recently me and my brother built two computers with the same exact specs and everything.
One of the computers works fine.
The problem is simply that sometimes the computer will just shut down, and then reboot itself after 2-3 seconds.
SPECS:
GTX 970 (From our old pc's)
i7-8700K
PRIME Z370-P
TX850M Corsair
H60 Corsair
16GB Ballistix RAM
So after a while of this happening I have noticed a clear pattern, and that is it crashes when it’s under load, and it also depends on how long the computer has been on.
If I’m not playing any intensive games or doing other intensive stuff I can go for days without a single crash. (However I have noticed that a few things that didn’t cause the crash before, now will cause a crash). Like playing Fortnite.
What I've done so far:
Tried to replace the CPUs on the computers and still experiencing crashes.
And we have also replacing the RAMs and that also didn’t help.
And they of course do work inside the other computer. So they obviously haven’t been at fault.
We also put new thermal paste on.
Another thing that I've done is that I have re-installed and updated my graphics driver with Geforce Experience. I’ve all the "Ez windows 10 fixes" you find on a bunch of websites.
And I've tried unplugging my second monitor and using a different extension cable as I thought the power might've been the problem.
I've checked my computer for viruses, none found.
Took the computer to the repair, they told me they couldn't even get it to crash.
Not sure what they even did or if they just led it ran or something.
The whole build is not less than three months old and I’ve seen people saying that the PSU could be at fault, but it should be powerful enough as the other computer is running fine.
Capels are placed inside nice and secure. But maybe I’ve done something that could’ve changed how much power it’s letting out and such. But not sure how I can check if my PSU is the problem.
Also I know that heat might be the problem, but we put on new thermal paste on both of them. And I only have one monitor, so I don’t know how to check it when I’m playing to see.
Really appreciate any help I can get.
Thank you Less Than Three. (<3)
