McPaddy00 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 In the last two/three weeks I have been have a number of unexplained reboots. Hardware wise nothing has changed and I don't believe it's a software issue. The reboot sometimes happens hours after gaming, or it can happen a few minutes after turning the computer while it is idle. Some times it will reboot 2 or 3 times in a row. It has even reboot twice while being in the bios menu. It feels very much the same problem as this old post.The Windows event logs just has EventID 41 Kernel-Power.These are the steps I have try so far to debug the issue: Monitored the temperatures, they holds steady under benchmark Swapped out the video card (3090) for RX5700 xt Taken out 2 of the 4 sticks of memory Taken out the other 2 sticks of memory The setup up: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600X CPU Cooler: Corsair H55 Mobo: Gigabyte X570 Aorus Pro Memory: 4x 8GB DDR4-3200 CL16 NVME: Sabrent Rocket 2 TB M.2-2280 Video: 3090 which was a upgrade in August from RX 5700 XT Case: Corsair 110R PSU: Corsair RM750X Fans 2x Corsair ML120 Cables: All the ones provided by the PSU. The machine was built in December 2019 with the only upgrade being the video card in August. As I mentioned before it has been running sweetly for the last few years and 3 months with the new video card.I have update all of the drivers to the latest. Including the bios which was pretty scary with a machine that randomly reboots.My gut feel is that there might be an issue with the PSU. Is there anyway to confirm that without using a second PSU? Any stats I could look at? Is there anything else I can try to debug the problem? Thank you in advance for any help you can offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
