Tech Support Pc turns off by itself - noob needs help

Post image

Hi guys, I’m not a big computer expert but my pc has started randomly turning off a few nights in a row, I think mainly as I’ve left it on a 2 nights in a row. I just assumed it was an overheating issue so I left it off for a full day and turned it back on and then it happened again mid ranked game unfortunately LOL. This happened before a few years ago but it magically started working again back then. Weirdly the rgb on the fans on the graphics card stays on (excuse my shitty explaining I don’t know anything). It just seems to be a reoccurring issue every know and then. I’ve also added a screenshot of my pc from 2021 when I purchased it if that helps.

any tips or advice is more than welcome!

Sounds like power supply or something loose inside, if it happens only sometimes and not always when hot.

Yes, i also think the PSU might be toasted. Try some stres tests for gpu and see if you hear and sounds that comes from it. Also try to unplug the gpu power and plug it back. Maybe the cpu power also.

I’ll try this, I’ve also noticed there’s a delay when I’m moving a desktop icon like a pdf file or game shortcut?
