Hello,

I am new to the forum. I have just build my first PC. I have a annoying problem my pc restarts when i am playing games. after 1 hour or 2 hours of gaming. My pc restarted when playing csgo and rocket league i didnt see pc restart when playing gta 5 and shadow of the tomb raider. I know there is a lot of threads of this problem but nothing helped so far....I was checking temperatures the whole time. I even stress tested cpu and gpu, gpu was max 69,70 degrees when stress testing on full. cpu keeps cool when gaming around 56-60 degrees. So i dont think it is heat...my psu is Corsair TX750M i bought it because it was gold 1 tier and 750watts should be more then enough power. So i dont think is too little wattage. I did a ram check and no errors or problems. I didnt overclock. I am using AOROUS ENGINE for GPU (gigabyte rtx 2070 OC white). i have it on gaming mode in aorous engine so i dont have it in overclock mode. I only changed ram settings in BIOS because it ran on 2166Mhz default i have 3200Mhz ram so i set Ram Mhz speed in bios to 3200. everything is brand new. But there is one more thing! I have pc plugged into power extension cord with 6 sockets. Can it be power extension cord ? my pc is to far from direct wall socket. I will go buy a single socket power extension and we will see...I hope my english is good enough. Thanks for the help. Greetings from Slovenia!

full specs:
ryzen 2700x stock cooler
asus x470 prime pro
gigabyte rtx 2070 oc white
16gb 3200mhz corsair vengeance pro rgb
2 SSD 500gb
nzxt h500i
 
Solution
It actually restarted when browsing the web so it wasnt only when gaming.
I plugged the PSU straight into the wall socket and set everything in bios to AUTO and now it works fine so far! Now i only have to figure it out which one is it. Bios settings or the power extension cable.
