Hello,
Recently I have bought a new PC, 6 days ago to be exact. For the first two days it worked perfectly fine, everything was silent, no overheating and it always booted up on the first try, even when unpacked and plugged in for the first time. On the third day however I was a little frightened when after pressing the "power" button it restarted itself 3 times before booting successfully. Apart from this issue it still works fine, no overheating and no errors or any other indications of a failure.
I have already searched a bit aout this issue but don't have the funds to replace any components or experience in computer maintenance to do any serious work inside. I already took some basic steps that were advised if such issue is encountered:
-Checked if my memory is running at it's 2400Mhz. It was downclocked by the motherboard to 2133Mhz so I manually changed it to 2400 since I read that the motherboard trying to downclock the memeory might be an issue here.
-Disabled the "fast boot" option in Windows
-My PC is connected directly to a wall outlet
This is my specification:
-Intel Core i5-7500
-MSI GeForce GTX 1060
-MSI Z270A PRO motherboard
-2x4gb Patriot Viper 2400Mhz RAM
-Silentium PC Vero M2 Bronze 600W power supply
I've read a lot that it might be a PSU issue but I don't have anyone to borrow a PSU from or any funds to buy a new one currently.
What other things might be this issue casued by and is it safe to use the PC under such conditions or is it better to service it before any other components fail?
If needed, I can post voltages displayed in BIOS and other information that would help finding the issue.
Thanks in advance
