I'm running into an issue that my desktop computer is randomly restarting. There doesn't seem to be a trend and it's completely random, sometimes I can go hours/days without encountering a random restart but sometimes it'll keep restarting once I run Chrome/Firefox (every few minutes).
I've tried running memtest and RAM looks to be good, no errors. I've checked EventViewer too and doesn't log the sudden restarts. These are 'hard' restarts since when the system boots back up, it says that it was suddenly turned off/did not turn off successfully and I can 'run as normal' or 'run in safemode' etc.
I've also used it for 20-minutes in Safe mode with no issues or restarts. Initially I thought it might be the PSU but since it's working in safe-mode without sudden restarts, would it be software related? Do you think I should replace the PSU first or fresh install of WinOS on another SSD?
