I recently bought a Xeon E5-2660 v1 for my motherboard that I got from my uncle because he was upgrading to kabylake. In the bigging everything worked fine I played games, overclocked my GPU a little everything was as stable as could be. But then my PC radomly shuts off instantly and I turn it back on. After 2 hours it shuts down again, so I turn it back on, then it turns off after half an hour. After that If I turn it on it gets to the windows loading screen and shuts off, not like "Windows is shutting down" but instantly off. I thought it must have been a short in my case so I take out the motherboard with CPU, RAM, and cooler installed and insert the gpu and power cables and run it on a wooden table and it runs fine, so I put it back in my case and it has the same problem again. First it shuts down after 4 hours, then 2, then 30 min, then 2 seconds. I bought a new case but the same problem happens again. And its not my power supply because it did then same thing with another psu. So if anyone can help me, please respond.


Specs:
ASUS RAMPAGE IV GENE
8Gb Crucial memory x1, 1600Mhz
AMD R9 380x Sapphire Nitro.
ADATA HM-850 PSU.
Old case: Cougar MX200
New Case: BitFenix Nova

Thank you.


P.S. sorry for my bad grammar English isnt my first language.
 


It's almost the same CPU only the v2 has 2 more cores and threads.
