PC shutdowns constantly.

[Toxicstriker]

Hi everyone!

My problem is, that my PC started shutting down constantly. It appears it shuts regardless if I'm playing a game or surfing YT etc. Example, when i play, the game just freezes and the PC restarts, after the bios loads i get this message http://i.imgur.com/xbh9NE2.jpg i shutdown the PC and try to power it up again if i don't wait 2-5 minutes, it will not start back up at all (no fans are starting, its like i haven't plugged it in the power). I had windows 10 beta, and i thought its from the beta updates, but it wasn't. It showed this message- http://i.imgur.com/ErQ9P4d.jpg . Now i installed back win 7, but the problem continues. I have tried using my SSD and HDD on another PC, to see if its from them, but the problem didn't occur, tho it might be just a coincidence and i didn't wait long enough. Do you guys have any idea whats wrong in my setup (except the enormous bottle neck, I'm working on it). What part is giving up and if any other information is needed what should i provide?

 

PC specs:

CPU:    a8- 3870

GPU:    R9 290

MOBO: GA A75-m DS2

PSU:    CM V750

SSD:    Intel 520 series

HDD:   WD5000AZRX

 

Ps. The problems hasn't occurred while typing this post

at first glance it sounds like your motherboard might be going bad, possibly power supply.

Change out the SATA cable.

Im hoping thats not the case. Can i test it somehow to see if it works fine?

Change out the SATA cable. 

I will look into that.

if you have other hardware swap them in and out to test the psu, If I were you I'd take everything apart and clean it with canned air, clean all the ports everything make sure its all seated properly.  Then narrow things down by trying 1 stick of memory, a diff psu if possible, as well as doing some research on the parts you own.

Ok so... Bought new SATA cables. The problem still occurs. I tried another video card, and the problem still occurs. I used my ssd and hdd on another computer, i tested for a while, but the problem didnt occur. Whats left is psu(i seriously doubt it because its good brand and costly, not that its out of the question trough),RAM, processor and motherboard.
I used FurMark to test my r9 290, and the problem occured after the end of the test. I then swapped back to my old R7 200, made the test and after 10ish minutes again the pc crashed.

Im clueless to what is happening.

Turns out, after two days of troubleshooting that one of my ram sticks is failing. I removed it and everithyng is working fine.
