Computer turning off

[notexactly]

Hi everyone,
I just built a PC and soon after i've put old HDDs in it, it started turning off. I also installed Asus drivers in the meantime. It's doing it constantly now, 4 5 6 minutes after i turn it on.
Errors that have been appearing are: Whea uncorrectable error, Clock watchdog timeout, driver IRQL not less or equal.
I tried installilng windows again but after turning off couple of times, it went all through the install process and when it was time to type the user name for the PC and stuff it started turning off again.

Pc components:
i7 6700k
hyper 212 evo
asus z170 pro gaming aura
Thermaltake smart 730w
hyperx fury 8gb 2666 ghz

Thanx

Your welcome.
Well you don't need the hard drives to get into BIOS, but you do need RAM, so this for sure telling me that its gotta be the flash drive, or the ISO files or the hard drive cables or hard drives/SSD.
Can't image not all hard drives and SSD wouldn't work if their new, if their not new then yes I could see all of them not working, thats what made me think of a SATA hard drive cable being bad. Remember there are 2 different kinds, one for power and one for data. They're cheap, if you can stop by your local PC store or best buy and pick a couple of each up.
Heck if you got the cash pick up a new SSD, (or HDD) I prefer Samsung 850 EVO SSD, have always had good luck with them and they rate great. or for HDD a Western Digital Blue 7200RPM 64MB cache if you cant get it, or is your SSD new also? You said your HDD's are new right?
Try the hard drives one at a time with out any other one connected, if you haven't done that yet. Try a new flash drive and new ISO.

SSD is brand new, My friend gave me an hd that's practicaly new (in his company they buy pcs with hds and then take them out and put ssds in). Cables are also new, came with an MB. I will try everything that we mentioned and will let you know what happened.

One more thought or 2 and I'll leave you to work.
Maybe format the SSD /HDD before you try and install the OS.
And maybe trying different SATA ports to the mother board from the SSD/HDD.

I know you said the cables were new but trouble shooting one O one is start with the basics and rule them out. New things come broke sometimes. Just saying.

Here is a link to a faulty mother board:

heres another link I find useful

Heres a guy with basically the same problem as you. He wound up replacing his mother board and CPU to fix it.
It also did mention in here to something about installing ubuntu first then installing Windows over it.

Saw another link someone was having same issue and it was CPU.
Also read that some mother boards dont like booting to USB flash drive. Do you have an external optical drive you could try?

Thanx a lot again youre doing a bit of a research as we are. Buddy and me tried a lot of things today but no success. We booted in bios without any disks and at first it was fine. Tried installing os on my ssd and also on his ssd, We reset the bios, updated bios, We also tried installing linux, same thing. What is crazy is that when the disks are formatted and even when there are no disks the blue screen appears. We will tru with an optical drive. We will try and get another ram to try and also we will try and set the cpu to work with 3 cores because we read somewhere that some guy did it and managed everything so with those 2 we will discard the ram and cpu problems or find out what the problem might be. Whats left after that is the mb or psu. Thanx a lot man. Im gonna go and get some sleep now. Cheers

When you say no disk, is the flash drive in the USB port? Thought the blue screen was a windows error, but guess you can get one on linux also.
Did you try another flash drive yet?
I would start with 1 core and work your way up.

Bsod showing up even with formatted disks or without disks is exactly my biggest question. Im not sure if the usb was plugged in or not but How can it show up when theres no os? We tried booting from 3 different usb sticks without any success. We will stsrt with one core and see where it takes us. Thanx buddy

Well I'm guessing if the flash drive was in it boots to RAM and thats why you got the BSOD again.
I can't see any way of getting BSOD with out some type of connection to the OS. It's a windows error.
This is crazy!

So i just changed cpu settings in bios and set only one core to work. Installed OS without problems and it seems to be working fine. Then i worked my way up and when i set to all cores it just stopped. Now i don't even have any output on my display it says: DVI no signal and VGA no signal. Crazy crazy things. I just sent an email to the company where i bought this so i'm waiting for their reply. Cheers buddy

I sent everything back to to seller and after changing the mb they figured it was cpu after all and they changed it. Now the computer's back and everything's fine. Thanx everybody especially corb, i appreciate it.
