About 2 months ago I noticed my smart light that was connected to my motherboard IO was having charging issues so I switched out the wire and the same day my pc shuts down after 30mins of playing a video game as if there was a power cut, so I checked to make sure and that wasn’t the case. I got worried and switched out my power supply, as I read that was the best and first thing to do in these situations but now I’m worried my motherboard may be affected. Although there’s no visible signs of damage on the mobo and the debug lights aren’t showing anything unusual and there’s no errors on my pc but I’m still worried that if I should switch out my mobo too? This has never happened before. Maybe I’m just panicking too much

include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

I got worried and switched out my power supply
Might want to include the prior PSU's make, model and age.
