Computer shuts off randomly

[Hunterkiller306]

Computer randomly shutsdown, then restarts. my best guess is the PSU. The PSU fan is functional, but only spins up when i go into boot menu, otherwise it doesnt spin, then overheats (i think) i have a evga super nova 550w g2

What are your full specs and do you have your PSU in ECO mode?

550 G2 has an ECO if you have that model.

I don't run mine on ECO , but some do.

When ECO mode is enabled, the power supply fan will not spin until a specific temperature is reached. To enable ECO mode, there is a switch on the back of the power supply. With ECO mode enabled the fan should not run until the power supply hits 40c. If the temperature reaches or exceeds 40c the fan will turn on to prevent overheating.

Hmmm, It still hard restarts, so idk if the powersupply keeps overheating, if it is, any recommendations to help keep it cool?
Even with the case open, it still overheats
atleast i think thats what happens
the gpu is warm to the touch, and the insides are very hot...
