I'd suspect it's your VS 550w PSU. If it's random restarting, that's the sign for me. If it was a BSOD, then I'd think differently. BSOD could be a mem problem or CPU problem.

Can you get your hands on another PSU to test? Maybe a friend has one you can swap out for a day to see. Then once you know you could consider ordering a new one.

The Corsair VS isn't the worst PSU, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend one to anyone. Getting a decent EVGA G2/G3, Corsair RMx, Seaonic Focus Plus would all be good choices as a replacement.

No it was not BSOD....is their any way to check PSU without other?because it is hard to find other

May be it is PSU problem..because i getting shock like feeling if i touch anything without wearing slippers ..like cabinet or io shield or anything alttached to it like usb...or mobile mettalic parts
attached with usb.....i am using 3 pin plug which is grounded even after this getting shock

Having 3 pins wouldn't necessarily mean the outlet is grounded.

Although unlikely with and AIO; is that 50C at idle? If it is idle temps the temps would raise a lot and if they exceed a certain limit (varies for different components) the component might throttle/down clock or shut down the system.

Having said that, as said above, the VS series of corsair are not really good. How old the PSU? I'd suggest you get a good-quality 550W unit.

Also you mentioned Hue+, so I assume you have RGB fans. Does this still happen if you turn Hue+/RGB on fans off?

Not really any other way to check, other than to try another one. You can get a tool to check the output of the PSU, but you'd have to get that in a hardware store.

If you find the PSU is sparking, then I'd advise not to use it further. You run the risk of damaging more components. Get a new PSU, don't use your current one, and you should be good to go when it's replaced.

Outlet is grounded it is confirmed
50 degree is max i noticed...it is not at idle....
PSU is 3 year old like whole system
yes this is happening even after turnoff HUE

At this stage I think the PSU is the culprit and you said it's not easy but if another good working PSU is available you can switch that with the VS and see if restarts happen again or not.

Plz suggest some good and budget psu models for me

When it comes to PSUs quality and budget don't really go hand in hand. Although there are some decent 'budget' units.

Not sure about availability or price where you are but I's say corsair CXM 550W is a good budget unit.
