Hello,
yesterday I started having a weird issue. Suddenly in the middle of the night my PC booted up (it was shutdown not on sleep mode) and started a weird restart loop where it would power up for 4-5 seconds, power off for 1-2 seconds and so on... I had to switch off the PSU or it wouldn't stop and the moment i switch it back on it goes back to the same loop. I tried taking out the GPU and disconnect all peripherals to see if it would still persist but it stopped. surprisingly too when I put the GPU back it didn't do the boot loop and actually worked normally for an hour. I shut it off and kept the power to see what happens and again after a few hours it randomly booted up.
I suspect this is a PSU issue. I'd appreciate any feedback on what it is and any next steps as I am stumped at the moment. Note: Idk if this is relevant but sometimes when I wake the PC up from sleep i get a BSOD with code: video TDR Failure. it happens 1/20 times and I just shrugged it off as windows/ driver issues. No other issues before since I upgraded my CPU,RAM and Motherboard last year.
SPECS:
CPU: Ryzen 5 2600
GPU: Galax GTX 1060 6Gb
RAM: 16Gb Corsair Vengeance (down-clocked to 2666MHz)
MOBO: B450 Aorus Elite V2
PSU: Seasonic SII 512W
