I have been getting some random powering off,it has happened twice just today but has not happened in a while before today. It will just power off,leaving the CPU debug light on,on the motherboard and the HDD light on the front of my case is solid on. To me this feels like it could be CPU overheating but everything is running cool enough according to HW Info and Ryzen Master and it has done it while idle and the CPU is not being stressed. Even now,all 16 cores of my 3950X are hovering between 39 and 45 C,depending on the core. I was using PBO earlier when it did it both times but its never run hot under my NH-D15 except on PBO and doing something like a cinebench run and with that it reports some of the cores hitting 90C or higher. Something that really stresses it. Other stresses like CPU-Z or the CPU test in 3D Mark do not get it that hot. Is this indicative of overheating? It really does not seem like it should be but by what it looks like,it must be,IMO. Setting to default,with cinebench running,all the cores are sitting around 65-72,depending on the core. Whats does anyone think? Could something else cause the powering off and the CPU light on,with a solid HDD light?
EDIT: It could also be my GPU overheating. I just noticed in nicehash that fan speed was 0% on my 6750XT even though it it should not be. I think some kind of shenanigans might have been going on with the fan control in the driver or something. I usually let MSI afterburner control the fan with its default fan tune profile but if for some reason my Merc 319's fans were not spinning,it could have easily overheated even sitting idle,I would think. Turning Afterburners fan control off and on a couple of times seemed to have fixed it. IDK if that was really the cause or if it would cause the CPU light to be on like that.
