How do I tell what part of my PC is overheating and causing it to completely Shut down? Here's the issue. I got a brand new Motherboard and a new Processor as the final upgrades to my PC that I first built over 6 years ago. (Intel core i7-8700k Coffe Lake 6-Core Processor and ASRock Z370 Professional Gaming i7 Motherboard.
When I play a certain game, some days my PC will just shut off while playing it. Usually that is a sign of overheating, so I figured, sure let's upgrade to a good Liquid Cooling system for my new Processor. It still happens. I bought a new Rear Case fan to help pull more Hot Air from the case. It still happens. I have also researched how to check the Event Viewer in Windows 10. However, the only information it provides is a common error code, and "The computer shut off unexpectedly" So outside of that. I don't know what else could be happening. I don't know of another way to check which component is overheating and causing the computer to crash. I also cleaned out a lot of dust including on the Power Supply.
I will mention ahead of time, that I have continuously checked HWMonitor to see what is overheating. In that game, My Processor is around 42 mostly with a Max during the Gaming session of about 62. My Graphics Card is around like 72 or so. But you never see it when the computer just randomly shuts off.
