I am getting a little frustrated with my pc due to sudden shutdowns, restarting from sleep mode during the night and rebooting repeatedly without posting.

While it won't solve this I am thinking about updating some components or getting ready for a new build. There are a lot of changes coming out now and that has got me interested as well.

Here is what I have an I am looking for suggestions on what would be a worthwhile upgrade or if it is better to just jump in and do a rebuild. I am getting the HP Reverb G2 VR headset on it's release next month.

Motherboard - Asus H170 Pro-gaming
CPU - I7 6700 - Stock cooling
RAM - 8gb X 4 gskills ripjaws v 2400
SSD - Samsung Evo 850 1tb
SSD - sabrent rocket nvme ssd 1tb
GPU - Asus Strix 2070a
Monitor - Alienware aw3418dw
Kef LSX speakers
Fractal Design Define R4 ATX Tower Case
PSU Corsair RM650X
I am aware that there are new processors from both AMD and Intel so it may be better to wait or perhaps just to cpu or>

All opinions welcomed.
