PC restart

[Samuel2112]

I just recently built my PC and for the most part it runs great and I’m very happy with it. The only problem I have is that it reboots about twenty minutes into a gaming session (Elden ring). After that reboot it won’t do it again until the next day when I hop back on. I have a 3060 Ti, 11th gen i7, and a 650w power supply. One of my friends said it may be that I need a larger power supply but I wanted to get some other takes on the situation.

What brand and model?

 

Also we need more info about your system.

Did you overclock anything?

 

What PSU? (full model - manufacturer or 80+ rating isn't enough)

That should be a good PSU. Could still be faulty but the issue isn't because of a low quality unit.

 

What motherboard?

 

Can you see if event viewer detects any kind of error?

That's a tough one, especially since this only happens about once a day. This error could be related to pretty much every component in your system.

 

Let's just start with the RAM. Try running with 1 stick and see if it makes a difference. If not try the other stick. Also try each RAM slot.

So today it has happened three times in the past couple hours and didn’t automatically come back up. 
 

I will try that and see what happens

That makes me think it is actually the PSU
