Getting random power failures when gaming

[CubisticWings4]

The past few days, my PC has been having power failures during gaming. 

 

I have tried re-seating the DIMMS, re-seating the GPU, and re-seating the CPU, but not having any luck.

 

My PSU is from 2015. Antec HPC-1000 Platinum and not pulling any more than 390 watts.

 

Am I missing anything?

Try unplugging the power cables from/to everything and rewiring the whole deal.

 

This was happening to me, and doing that fixed my problem.  also allowed me to fix up my atrocious cable management.

Bummer. Sounds like a lot of tedium.

That's generally how troubleshooting works. Alternatively, try a known good working power supply to eliminate your PSU being bad. Components can wear out over time, especially with all the heat they generate, so a 2000w PSU will eventually die even if you were only ever drawing less than 500w from it.
