COMPUTER IS RANDOMLY RESTARTING NO BSOD

jsbaasi

Ok so I have a windows 7 computer and it keeps randomly restarting. I've done everything and I'm really frustrated as to what to do next. I've taken each RAM stick and tested it and it wasn't that. Plus there was a bit of a cycle of reboots that happened one hour and decided to go into the bios and just chill there. It rebooted in the BIOS as well! So it must be hardware. Oh and I've taken out the power switch and reset switch from my case to the motherboard fearing they both may be faulty. Yet the reboots are stil there.

 

CPU: i7 960
CPU Cooler: Stock
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 460 1gb
Mobo: Gigabyte X58A UD3R 
PSU: Antec CP-1000
RAM: 6gb consisting of 3 sticks of corsair dominator GT 2gb DDR3 
2 optical drives
10tb of storage with 7 hdds and no ssds
3 x 120 mm fans
2 x 140 mm fans
1 x 250 mm fan

 

PLEASE HELPPPP MEHH

seriously.. think about what you just said, in what world is that not a shallow troll post?

on topic: probably best to give the old thing a propper dusting either way, beyond that it's probably either the mobo or iffy power supply cables.

I've dusted the piece of metal I call my computer so many friggin times. It's clean on the outside but it's dying inside and won't tell me what's wrong!

I've also replaced the stock thermal paste with high end paste. I've made sure the heatsink is properly on and functioning. I'll try a different GTX 460 but how can that be the problem?
