Hello,
For the last few weeks, my computer has been randomly hard resetting itself (entire computers shuts off, black screen and no BSOD, turns itself back on like everything is normal) after random amounts of time in a game. For example, it will sometimes crash after 4 hours of play on one game but at another time it will crash after just an hour and a half while playing the same game. After the computer powers itself back on, it logs the lovely Kernel-Power critical error in the administrative events log. I've run memtest86+ multiple times to ensure it's not a memory problem as well as checked all the cords running from my power supply to the ports on my mobo and video card. I've monitored my CPU and GPU temps (after cleaning dust and dirt from the inside of the computer) while playing games and the CPU never gets above 35-40 degrees Celsius while the GPU never gets above 55 degrees Celsius. Any information or fixes that you can offer are greatly appreciated.
PC Specs:
Motherboard: MSI Gaming Intel Skylake B150 LGA 1151 DDR4 USB 3.1 ATX
Processor: Intel Core i5-6600K 6M Skylake Quad-Core 3.5 GHz LGA 1151
Graphics Card: GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1060 DirectX 12 GV-N1060G1 GAMING-6GD 6GB 192-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16
RAM: HyperX FURY (2x8GB) 2133MHz DDR4 Non-ECC CL14 DIMM
Power Supply: CORSAIR HX Series HX850 850W ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V 2.91
PS,
Everything in this computer is around 8 months old with the exception of the PSU which is from my old computer build from around 3 years ago.
Edit: Something I forgot to add is the fact that I have already disabled automatic resets to see if there is a hidden BSOD but there isn't one, which makes me think it's more power related than it is hardware related with the exception of the PSU.
