PC Shutting Down Without Warning

[Aprice90]

I've had this PC for I would want to say about 5 years now and it's a IBUYPOWER PC I bought from Walmart because I lack the experience of building my own. After 3 months of owning it the PC turned off and wouldn't turn back on. I had to ship it back and cash in my warranty which they didn't send me a new PC they just "Fixed" it. Shipped it back and then after about 2 years the PC would turn off and I could turn it back on but it would turn off randomly without warning. Sometimes after 10 seconds of turning back on and sometimes after 30 minutes. However after turning it on and off about 30 -50 times back to back eventually it would work without any problems for months on end but when it shuts off on me it keeps giving me a problem for hours on end until it finally makes a break through. So I'm thinking it's my PSU however I'm not sure.

Make sure the power cable is plugged in good to the hard drive if it is not detecting the hard drive (check sata cable as well)

What did you replace the PSU with?

It's been on for 25 minutes now but the CPU is running at 100 degrees celcius which is extremely hot compared to everything else running at 35-40 degrees celcius. I'm not sure how to cool the CPU down.

Are you using the stock Intel supplied CPU cooler or an after-market cooler?

I'm using whatever came with the PC it looks like it's a watercooling unit installed right over the heatsink.

It looks like an Asetek 240mm radiator Liquid CPU Cooler. I don't know the specific model number. My guess is that it's a 570LX.

You need to determine if the pump is still working.

Was in bestbuy when you posted this comment, I bought a $100 Corsair liquid CPU cooler and installed it over my CPU which came with two 80mm fans that mounted above it and has my system running at 35 C from the CPU earlier running at 100 C and now It's running better than ever!

Great to hear that it's resolved.

good job, although the psu may not have solved it, it is a much much better unit and will do you well.
