Posted April 29, 2020 I recently built a pc that has a Ryzen5 3400G on a B450 PLUS motherboard with 2x8GB 2600Mhz RAM. I reused an oldish power supply that has 500W Usually I use it in the morning, and every time I turn it on and launch a game it shuts down 2 minutes after. After shutting down I turn it back on and launch the game again and it works well, I can play all day. BUT the next morning it happens again and the next morning again and its been a week already. Today I used it in the morning for a little bit and it shutted down as always, but when i went to have lunch I turned it off. When I came back the same situation happened. So Im guessing this only happens when the pc cools down. The temps are fine, used Cinebench 20 and Core Temp to measure it. Does anybody know what could it possibly be ? And how to fix it ?

Posted April 29, 2020 Author Update: I went to buy a new psu and guess what? It worked, it doesn't shut down anymore and makes much less noise. Thank you guys very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
