Question PC randomly shuts down when playing certain games ?

[Lordslayer]

I recently upgraded my GPU to a 4070 Super as well as upgrading the PSU to an FSP Vita GM 850W Gold.

I haven't had any issues when playing Baldur's Gate 3. However when i play Warzone or Delta Force the system randomly shuts off (edit - indiana jones and the great circle as well) Then it loops with the fans switching on for couple of seconds then off then on until I unplug it. Thought it may be a thermal issue so cleaned everything today, reapplied thermal paste and reseated cooler. The issue still persists though. How do I check if its not the new PSU that it faulty?
I did run HWinfo last night but its just too many numbers, not sure what i need to be looking at.

The PSU is single rail. Gpu is connected with the dedicated 12v cable that came with the PSU.

System Specs
Mobo: Gigabyte H610M H v2
CPU: Intel i7-13700K
GPU: MSI RTX 4070 Super
RAM: 2 x 16GB Mushkin DDR4 3200
PSU: FSP Vita GM 850W Gold


Edit
Updating the BIOS to newest f30 version (which includes the microcode fix for the intel vmin shift issue) has not helped with this issue.

No wonder with a garbage motherboard like that. With a 13700K you need a motherboard with decent VRM.
What does HWinfo tell you about the VRM temps?

Cant see a heading of VRM. Is it the VR VCC one? Max on that was 79 but that wasn't at the time it shut down. But the log was only on temps. I will run it again with default settings

 

[Lordslayer]

On the VRM MOS the max was 87 but that was 9 minutes before the shutdown. Byt the time it shut down it was only 75

Recently upgraded my GPU to a 4070 super as wel as the PSU to a GSP vita GM 850W Gold.
when i play Warzone or Delta Force the system randomly shuts off.

Update motherboard BIOS to latest version.
This will impose stricter CPU power limits and prevent 13th and 14th gen cpus from possible deterioration.

What BIOS version do you have currently?

 

[Lordslayer]

So turns out there is a newer Bios update available. Will update and check if that helps with things and update the post accordingly

Lordslayer Before you update your BIOS, make a note of the existing BIOS version and date. Then update the BIOS to the latest, and notate both in this thread. Approximately which month did you start gaming on this rig before updating the BIOS?​

Question: What was your GPU before you upgraded to the RTX 4070 Super?

Slightly off subject, and respectfully, a H610 chipset motherboard is insufficient for a Intel core i7 CPU: it doesn't support XMP memory overclocking, and there is no heatsink on the motherboard VRM. Undoubtedly the performance will throttle under content creation workloads, and possibly even under gaming scenarios. (1) I can't help but wonder if this is related to your primary problem. (2) "intel vmin shift issue" is of course my other concern.

I was on the f29(dec 2023) version which i updated to f30 (sept 2024) last night. Before this i had a 1080 and a 750w antec psu and this issue did not occur. Exact same system apart from the GPU and PSU upgrade done now. And was gaming on it since I bought it which was sometime in Late 2022/early 2023. Components are quite expensive in my country, even this h610 was 1.2k so I need to be sure its a Mobo issue if I am going to have to shell out 4-8k for a better one.
