Recently, it had been randomly shutting down, and on a random day, a transformer on an electric post blew up in our neighborhood causing a blackout. The PC is on a surge protector so I didn't think much about it. However, after that incident, the PC has been randomly shutting down and my cousin hasn't been even able to play a game for too long.
The issue I found was that the processor became too high. I thought it was an issue with the AIO. However, I tried my AIO on a friend's PC and the AIO works fine and completely cooled their processor. So I thought it may be a power supply issue. The PC was using a Seasonic GX 850 but I replaced it with a Cooler Master GX 850.
After replacing the PSU, it worked for a week, then it randomly shuts down again due to high CPU temp. So I'm thinking either the CPU or the Motherboard is the problem.
Recently, I tested my processor on another friend's PC with a 650W PSU and an x-470-Fand it ran fine with no shutdown (Used all the same PC components except the MoBo and PSU). Stress tested it using New World and it ran under 70C. Didn't get to take a screenshot.
So now I tested it again on my rig again with the same application and the temp on Ryzen master is this (but this time it didn't shut down)
I also noticed on the processor that it had this burnt pin:
I didn't test my friend's CPU to my MoBo because I can't rule out that my MoBo is the one with the problem and it might damage their CPU as well.
Based on this, could the motherboard be the problem? Can a damaged motherboard cause the processor to reach high temperatures?
