So starting last night my computer has been either shutting down automatically, or stop exporting video and using USB ports. My specs are:

AMD FX-8350

Arctic Silver 5

MSI 970 Gaming MOBO

Kingston 8 gb ram stick

sapphire r9 290x tri-x 8gb edition

Corsair CX 600 PSU

Seagate Barracuda 1tb

 

At first I thought it was because of heat, since my computer gets pretty hot during GTA:V, so I tried to turn it back on this morning and it wouldn't turn on. Eventually it got the fans spinning, but there was no display output or USB power. It is working now, but still shuts down and sometime doesn't give sub power sometimes. Any help?

Side-note: I had no clue how to put on thermal paste when I built it so I put a probably larger amount than normal on it. And the temps for stuff sometimes goes out of the roof.

What temps are you getting on your cpu  at idle and under load(use a program like core temp to find that out)?

About 30- 40 degrees idle and 50 degrees. Very hot.

30-40 idle isn't actually that much, that's what my computer idles at. Your computer would have to be hitting 80 and above degrees celcius in order for it to be a problem with temperatures.

It might be a bios problem but I don't have much experience there, have you tried overclocking your computer at all?

No I haven't tried to overclock. It's my first computer and I don't have an aftermarket cooler.
