Hi all
In the past few hours my computer has shut down after playing about 10 mins of FFXIV, then after shutting down it tries to boot back up only to shut down once more pretty much inmediately. So far it has happened three times, before the last time I was keeping an eye on the temperature and everything was in the normal ranges which makes me think that it's the PSU that's failing. I've had this computer for a while and have been slowly upgrading it as I'm able to afford it. What I have right now is:
CPU: Intel Core I5-8600 with stock cooler
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070
RAM: 2 4GB DDR4 3200ghz, I should be changing those to 2 8GB DDR4 3200ghz today
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z370 Aourus Gaming 3
PSU: Coolermaster 700w RS-700-PCAA-E3
(Nothing overclocked)
I've had that PSU for about 10 years now and the last change I did to the computer hardware wise was about a year ago when I got the GPU and motherboard.
My question is to get other opinions on if it's the PSU failing and how to check and suggestions on what other one I can buy that would fit my system. Keep in mind as well that I live in Argentina so availabilty might not be guaranteed as well as everything has a higher price
