PC randomly shut down/ Dead PSU?

[Toto123456]

So my pc has been running smoothly for the past year or so. Never had a problem like this.

 

So basically is whenever I use my PC the pc will turn off itself like a power cut (no warning, errors, BSOD) and will not turn on immediately (like restart) it will take about 30 secs to reboot itself. My CPU temp is below 70C all the time, my GPU is 80C. however even when I use it for web browsing, it turn off itself too (when everything is under 40C). also everything is in STOCK settings.

 

I have looked into event viewer like everyone suggest but for some reason it doesnt detect any fault like i never turn on the pc 30 minutes ago.

 

my best guess is PSU is dead, do u guys have any input?

Well most likely its the PSU maybe just try a different one and see if that works.

Yeap, sounds exactly like my situation months back when my PSU died. (1000W Super Flower Leadex Platinum. Months of mining on dual 290X took it's toll lol)

 

Of course one way to be sure of it is to connect a different PSU to your comp and try it. If you have any functioning desktop near you, you're families or whatever, rip out it's PSU and connect it to your PC. Be sure to remove your GPU and run off iGPU. It should use so little power any PSU can run it. 

 

Good luck!

It turns straight OFF and doesn't reboot? Yeah, most likely the PSU is dead.. Also, we have a section in the forum, just for this, called "Troubleshooting". Please post there next time you have an issue.

dont have any spare pc nearby. I guess I will contact amazon to get a replacement rather than wasting more time trying to figure it out lol

Gonna have to agree here. Its unlikely its the MOBO but still a possibility. The PSU is usually the first thing to go in most electronics. I would avoid attempting to use the PC until you get a new PSU. Zero-Warning shutdowns can cause some serious data-loss and corruption.
