My desktop PC occasionally reboots itself lately. The random reboots happen quite out of blue - once in a few days/weeks. I noticed however that the reboot is more likely if my PC is left on for consecutive days. No such a problem occurred for the first few months after it is built. And I did not add any more hardware to the PC.
After brief research, I feel the problem might be attributed to either bad ram or PSU. In this post, I want to focus on the PSU I am using. Based on the following specs, will you think my PSU is short of power?
Thank you for kindly advising!
