Hi everyone,

For the past month or so my PC has been crashing during games, specifically Rust although it happens occasionally in other games.
The screen freezes for ~5 seconds then power goes out (looks like when you hold the power button). I did a full reinstall of Win10, updated all drivers and did a memory test to rule out RAM. Most recently, I replaced the PSU which has had no impact. I'm at a bit of a loss here.

All of my parts are super cool, none go above 50 degrees Celsius and the build is less than a year old.

In reliability history, all it says is something like "the pc was not shut down properly last time". What could I do to get more info for you all?

Specs:
I7-9700k (with noctua's D-15)
Evga 2080 (in a custom loop)
Expc slim rad 240 w/2x noctua nf-f12
Asus ROG STRIX Z390-I Gigabyte
AORUS RGB 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200
Western Digital Black NVMe 500 GB
Corsair SF 600 W 80+ Gold

Thank you.
