Hello,
I've had my gaming computer for about 10 months and recently i've had this problem that it powers off abruptly both during intensive gameplay and standby.
If i immediately try to turn it back on it attempts to turn back on and boots for about 2 seconds.If i wait a while it will successfully turn back on and sometimes work for the rest of the day or turn off again 10 minutes later.I thought this might be a overheating issue so i ran a program that told me that yes the cpu was at a very high temperature but my computer isn't overclocked and it hasn't built up with dust inside so why is it doing it now? Another reason why i'm confused is why would it overheat within 5 minutes of standby after being left for a day beforehand but then be completely fine for 4 hours of intensive gameplay?
