Hello people. So I have this issue and I have searched all over the internet. We will come to it but first I have seen this topic: https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/cpu-or-motherboard-failure-help.235589/
Almost identical situation and troubleshooting. But let's get into mine.
First of all, specs:
CPU: Ryzen 5 2600X
Mobo: MSI B450 Tomahawk
RAM: 2x8GB GSkill RipjawsV 3000 Mhz
GPU: ASUS DUAL GTX 1060 O3G
Cooler: Cooler Master ML240L
Case: Thermaltake V200 with 650W PSU Thermaltake put into it, probably 80+
Tl;dr I was gaming yesterday and all of a sudden my screen went off and every fan in the case gone full speed. It scared me of course and my initial thought was "did my GPU just die?" but just like the topic from 2011 I did my part and narrowed it down to cpu and mobo. Funny thing is, I think it is the CPU.
I was using this setup for months. No recent BIOS updates(it was up to date), not a fresh build, no risque overclocking. Everything was perfectly fine until yesterday. I tested everything for about 4-5 hours. I could get into even BIOS so a dead GPU is out of the question. I picked my old Ryzen 3 2200G and tested with Both GTX 1060 and iGPU Vega 8 and bam, it's all working perfectly. With 2600X installed, everyrime I boot up I saw mobo logo and W10 loading but just before OS starting PC restarts. This goes for 2 cycles and in the end no post. The EZ Debug leds were on, especially CPU Led was in almost all the time during this process.
With my common knowledge I think this is a faulty CPU case(no pun intended). What do you people think tho? I contacted AMD RMA but still can't be sure about it. I wasn't even using an overclock on CPU at all. With liquid AIO Cooler temps never go above 65C. Everything else seems fine except 2600X but why? 🤔 Is this a message of a bad PSU or just me being unlucky?
