Hello i first posted this on the Overclocking forum, i was wondering if someone here might have some insight on wether or not the issue is PSU related.

Hello, maybe you guys can help me out. this is my system:
gigabyte ga990fxa-ud5 r5
FX8320e OC @ 4.4 Ghz
Vcore +0.125
LLC set to Very High
2 x 8GB DDR3 RAM
PSU: Corsair CX600M (refurbrished)
Water Cooler AIO: DeepCool Captain 240 EX
Zotac AMP! Edition GTX 1060
400GB SATA SSD
2TB HDD
RGB light strips NZXT Hue+, i like shiny things 😛
Case: NZXT H440
I put together this PC about 6 months ago. Without any issues, the only thing odd i could say is that since day one when i turn on my pc it turns on (all fans and leds turn on), then 1 second later, turns off, and then 3 or 4 seconds later turns on again and finally boots. I always found that to be odd, but since it didn't cause me any other issues i didn't gave much thought no it.
I overclocked my CPU about 2 months ago, It's my first overclock and i really enjoyed the process... I think i have a stable overclock, i stress tested it with prime95 over 1 hour and everything held up nicely, temps on the 35°C at iddle and 65°C after one hour testing. Also I have done some 1080p video encoding without issues and i am very happy with the performance,
Everything was ok. Until about 15 days ago... My pc started turning off and on suddenly. At first it only happened once every other day, but now it seems to happen every hour or so...
I am suspecting of my PSU, since i've read the Corsair CX series doesnt't have a very good reputation...
Is there a way to know if the problem is caused by the PSU?? I wouldn't like to buy a new PSU, install it and find out the problem is still there...
