Random Restart Temperature OK

[AakashRKO]

My pc is restarting randomly, my temp are as follows
Cpu - 45c max
Gpu - 42c max
MotherBoard - 35c max

This has happened while playing fifa, watching youtube, Running Autodesk Maya and once or twice while doing nothing but on desktop.


sometimes it goes for a longer time like pc will be ok for 4-5 Hours, and sometimes it restarts constantly like 2-3 times in a minute.

I have to work on maya by saving the progress every minute, because restart is annoying.
Can somebody please tell me what is the issue here???

System specs including make and model of the psu would be helpful.

CPU - I5 4440
Motherboard - Maximus VII Ranger
PSU - Corsair V650
Ram - HyperX fury 16 GB
GPU - GTX 960 2GB

I BOught this 1 year ago, only CPU and hard disk is 3 years old.
10 days ago CPU was overheating and pc was restarting like it does now. It was spiking 60 - 70 degrees.
I applied thermal paste, and it has solved the issue. CPU keeps 40 degrees temperature.
Now GPU thing has started, But i dont know this for sure. Whenever It restarts, GPU Tweak is programmed to run at startup, and there is a spike always in GPU temp graph and Gpu voltage graph. That's why i think it must be GPU.

Corsair doest have a V series but they do have a VS series and they are notorious for shutdown issues when they start to fail. It usually starts under load and progressivly worsen till it completely fails to power on. Can you try another PSU?

Yeah sorry its VS 650.

My spikeguard and swithboard are faulty, and electrician is coming this week, and I do have a history of PSU failure with same switchboard. That have failed Iball 220W, VS 450 and now this. Can Switchboard damage my PSU????

Its loose and very old and gives sparks now and then.

Not sure what you are referring to with switchboard, is it a surge protector? If its sparking that is bad sign. But you have also chosen some poor quality PSUs. From what i have heard of iballs they are junk quality fire hazards. If the power goingbto the psu is bad it can reek havok. If you input voltage issues you may want to invest in a power conditioner and ups.

I used to use i ball 220 with Pentium 4, VS 450 with i3, and using VS 650 now.

the switchboard i m talking about is the one on the wall, where i plug the spikeguard 3 pin plug.

I downloaded process explorer and saw that dropbox was using a little GPU. I killed the process and pc hasnt shut down. It has been running for 35 minutes straight.
WEIRD.
