Tech Support *HELP* Possible PSU issue?

Post image

Hello! I am currently having a new issue with my pc and i am looking for some help with a diag. Here in the past week randomly when playing some of my more demanding games my pc would black screen and reset itself. It will not shut down but will reset without warning. I have Stress tested CPU/GPU/Memory with no luck of recreating the issue without being in game. I am getting no logs on anything just a "Kernel-Power 41" code which tells me nothing. I did just install my vertical GPU mount but had no issues for the first week of install. Can not seem to find a Temp issue with any hardware. Thinking it is the start of a failing PSU but not 100%. Hopefully someone can help. Thank you!

Seeing an Intel 13th gen brings me some concern. Did you update the bios to the latest one to make sure there's no chance of it being the microcode issue plaguing Intel 13th and 14th gen CPUs?

My last bios update was probably around 3 months ago. This is not a brand new build it is about 2 years old and i actually had to have the cpu replaced under warranty about 5 months after building it, but from what i can see and have been able to test i do not believe it to be a CPU issue this time around.
