Had a bit of a scare this morning .
Was Playing Fallout 76 on my PC and suddenly the computer just shut down. no warning at all. it tried turning it self back on but the fans would spin for a second and the lights would come on and immediately turn off. i tried turning it back on a again but eventually it would not turn on at all. removing the power cable from the computer for a couple mins and pluging it back in helped it turn itself back on for a second or so and then it would just turn off again. i let it sit unplugged for about a good ten minutes and plugged it back in. and everything seems to be working again.
I do want to mention after opening the computer up it was a bit dusty inside. Not seriously Bad. But enough for me to know better.
I went through the event viewer to see if anything popped up but i didn't see any but i saved them and can upload them if needed.
Just wondering if anyone has had this issue before? Just kinda concerned. I will say though the GPU does run hot when playing some games 70c to 80c. I RMA'd it back in august because the fans would kick up like crazy and they sent it back claiming it was fixed and it's been fine but recently it's been getting a bit loud again but it's not exceded 72c.
