PC shuts down spontaneously

[Jacob_C]

Yesterday, I upgraded a bunch of components in my PC.

Old: i5-9600k, rog z390-i, 16gb ddr4

New: i5-13600k, rog z690-i, 32gb ddr5

The install was a pain and I had a ton of SSD problems. I had a raid 0 setup on my old motherboard and it was causing problems with windows setup with my new motherboard. I completed an Asus secure erase and the drives worked. Also, in the windows 10 installer, I had to use intel rapid storage software download during the setup to get it to recognize the drives. After this everything went smoothly until today when for no apparent reason it started shutting down spontaneously. No blue screen and nothing in the event viewer. Sometimes I can't boot windows and it will shutdown and sometimes it happens randomly in windows. Temps are fine. Boots into the bios fine. Straight to black with no attempt at rebooting. Only reboots after a power cycle. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Does the power cycle require you pull the power plug out?  If so, that's usually a sign of the PSU being overloaded/failing.

No, just a switch on and off and it boots back up.

The physical power switch?  As that's the same thing as pulling the plug it physically cuts the power which is only usually necessary if the PSU protection has kicked in.

Yes, the switch you are correct. I had a stretch of about 3 days where it was fine but now, it is doing it again. But it goes straight into a restart. No need to touch PSU
