Hi,
I recently assembled a gaming PC and I used it for 2 days. On the third day, system just shutdown all of the sudden without any warning. I powered the system On again and it did turn on. After logging in to windows, the system just shut again.
This is what happens now.
My specs:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3950x
Mobo: Asus Crosshair VIII Formula
Graphics: Asus RTX 2080 Ti OC 11 GB
RAM: Gskill Trident z neo 16X2 GB 3600MHz CL16
PSU: Corsair AX1000
Things I have tried:

- I press the power button
- Few codes starting from 00, 01,...runs on the motherboard with all the lights illuminating (mobo, RAM, fans). While in between, it just just shuts. When I power system again, it shows the code it had displayed before shutdown and wont POST. For example if the system shuts while the code A4 was shown, next time I turn the PC On, it shows the same Code and just stays that way, with some chasis fans not running. This code differs in each tries. It also shows 'VGA Bios' or 'reset CMOS' or 'HDD detect' on the motherboard (I dont remember the words correctly). No signal to monitor.
- I press the Retry button 3 or 4 times, and the motherboard starts from code 00 again as mentioned in step 1.
- If I am little lucky, the system boots, I log in to windows and Boom!! Shuts again.
- After few attempts, if I am extremely lucky, the system may even boot and I may even be able to game foe hours without a problem.

Things I have tried:
- flashing BIOS from USB, multiple times
- Clearing CMOs
- enabling LN2 jumper on mobo
- updating all drivers using driver booster free version.
- checking all connections
- using one stick of RAM in all slots.
