My cpu fan stops randomly when im using the pc but it doesn’t seem because of a huge workload because sometimes im playing nothing happens but later on like a day or two it stops and the pc shuts down mid game, its really annoying

Ive tried changing the cpu fan header and use one of the system fan headers and the same thing happens

I tried unplugging and plugging the power cables and it didnt work

I dont think it’s because of overheating because i had a screen monitoring thing to see the temps and I checked while playing and its around 55c so its perfect

My pc specs are the following
Cpu::I7-6700k 4ghz didnt overclock it

Cpu fan::cooler master evo 212x

Mobo::msi z270 sli plus

Gpu:: msi gtx 1060 6gb armor

Psu:: corsair cx 550m 550w 80+ bronze


Help meh 🙁
 


I don’t think that its the fan because i got it like a month ago and its brand new maybe there’s something wrong with my power supply not giving it enough power for some reason 🙁
 


There's always the chance for it to be defective

 


Is using the rear case fan instead of the stock fan to TEST it a good idea? Or should i just buy a fan and use it on the heatsink?
