Lately I've noticed that my PC tends to power cycle specifically when I leave it idle. I've never witnessed it turn off in front of me, but often when I leave the room for a few minutes and come back it has restarted. Looking at Event Viewer always show the same thing first an error with the event ID 6008 telling me that the shutdown was unexpected, after that there is a critical error event ID 41 that says the system rebooted without cleanly shutting down, it says the source is Kernel-Power.
My current system specs are:
- CPU: Ryzen 3800X
- MoBo: MSI X570 GAMING PLUS BIOS A.M0
- RAM: G.SKILL TridentZ 32GB running at 3600mHz with XMP
- GPU: RTX 3070 (LHR)
- WD Black SN750 NVMe SSD
- Corsair 240mm AIO (Not sure of the model)
- PSU: Seasonic 750W 80+ Gold rated unit (again not sure of the exact model but I got it last year)
This problem has persisted throughout multiple different hardware configurations and Windows installations. There hasn't been any specific circumstances that cause this, but I'm starting to suspect either a CPU or motherboard issue since they're the longest standing components in the system. Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated, I'll be happy to provide any further information needed.
