For the past couple months my computer has been randomly shutting down when I simply surf the web, play games, when I am doing nothing at all, in safe mode and even in BIOS. The computer does not blue screen, it just turns off. Sometimes it restarts itself after a hard shutdown but sometimes I am unable to turn it back on for 5 minutes.
I have run many tests to make sure that is was the PSU.
-My 3750k CPU temperatures are normal at no more than 53c at load
-I tried taking out the video card.
-I am also not overclocking my CPU.
-I have tested my RAM sticks by removing them and my computer still turns itself off.
-I reset my motherboard CMOS to make sure nothing weird was conflicting with my computer
-I even reformatted my computer to make sure it wasn't a driver problem.
-I also made sure all the connections to the motherboard is secure.
So after all of these tests I believe that my problem is the PSU. I bought a Seasonic x750 Gold PSU 5 months ago because I wanted to avoid something like this since I know Seasonic is one of the best out there.
What does everyone think? Should I send the PSU back?
I have:
AS Rock Extreme 4
3570k CPU
Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO Cooler
Seasonic x750 Gold PSU
