Greetings, id like to thank you for the help in advance.
So here goes all the story:
I had an old PC (core2duo + gts 450) where I used an ICEAGE IA5000HP80 that lasted for 3 years then It died. so I bought a corsair cx550 that died after a year, I thought maybe I had bad luck and bought a corsair cx600 to replace it, that died after a year aswell.
I was tired of having problems with PSU and I had money to start a brand new setup, so last year I built the following computer, that im using until today:
I7-7700k
Watercooler Corsair H150
GTX 1060 6GB AORUS
Mobo Asus SLI Killer
Ram 4x4GB corsair vengeance.
I made a lot of research at the time and decided to buy a seasonic s12 620W, it seemed to be the best/brand model that wouldn't cost insane amounts of money.
So i used this computer for a year with absolutely no problem, but now when I demand too much of the computer it shut down and turn on again. for example, if I try to run a heavy game like black ops4 the computer will shut down in about 5 minutes after running it, but I can still run a lighter game like apex legends on low setting without crashing, but if i run apex + discord + browser boom, shut down again.
I tried running the game using Hwmonitor + coretemp to check overheat, the maximum cpu temperature was 69C and GPU 65C, so im pretty sure its not about overheating.
So the main question is:
Is there a way to determine for sure that the computer is crashing because of the psu? i cant believe i spent a ton of money on a really good psu to not have headaches and im getting screwed like this.
