It suddenly happened, the power is being cut off automaticaly from my pc which makes it restart over and over again. I checked my cpu and found out that it was overheating. It reaches temps of 80c when idle even at bios. I tried cleaning my system and reapplication of thermal paste but it didnt solve the problem. My cpu fan is also working fine. I am speculating that the problem lies either in my supply or my processor. I suspect my mobo the least. my computer is 3 years old. Here is my computer specs:
600w generic psu
Amd a10 6800k (stock heatsink)
2x 4gb hyperfury 1800
500gb seagate hdd
Dvd rom
Gigabyte ga-f2a78m-hd2 mobo
2x cooling fans
Here are the list of things I tried
1. Reduce load of my psu (removing other i/o device and the case fans)
2. Cleaning of dusts
3. Reapplication of thermal paste
I havent tried replacing any components since I dont have spare parts. What could be the problem? All ideas will help me decide what to do with my computer. All responses are very much appreciated. Thank you in advance!
