Hi all,

 

Just built my new PC about a month ago and today for the first time, while playing Halo Reach, the PC randomly restarted itself... No error messages or anything, just a restart...

 

My Specs are as follows:


CPU: Ryzen 9 3900x

GPU: Gigabyte OC Gaming RTX 3070

RAM: 32gb 3600mhz

MOBO: ASUS TUF Gaming Plus Wifi

SSD: Samsung 970 EVO 1tb

AIO: NZXT Kraken X53

PSU: Corsair RM850x

 

Should I keep an eye out and monitor temps etc... Hoping another crash doesn't happen, or take action now? What might have caused that crash/restart?

 

Many thanks.

If it just turned off out of the blue, it is usually overheating or a power supply issue. The RM850X is a pretty solid unit so I would keep an eye on the temps, especially the CPU one.

My in-game temps are usually around 60-65 degrees for my CPU and 60 for my GPU
