Pc restart issue.


Build in attached pic.

My pc restarts without warning randomly. It's happening all the time now. I got my pc checked, 1 person said it's the motherboard, another said it's a RAM slot, and another said it's a connection issue(from gfx card to motherboard). Can anyone throw some light on this? What are my options? Did something similar happen to you?

    Hello Inner_Sky2654, and thank you for your submission to Gaming PC! If you are new please check out our rules over at the wiki [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/gamingpc/wiki/rules)!
    We have recently added the useful feature of Title Flair! You can set this manually by clicking Flair under your post once you have submitted your post, but if you missed it in the rules there is a much better way that will automatically flair your post!

    To do this simply add what your post is about in brackets before your title. For example for a Build Log you can type [Build Log] before your post so that it looks like this; [Build Log]My new awesome build!, and the bot will automatically set your flair to Build Log! This works for Build Log, Build Showcase, News, Hardware News, Hardware Release, Discussion, and Miscellaneous!

    Also remember that this is a place for discussing and sharing our love of Gaming Computers! This is NOT the place for help building or determining what parts you should buy, that is better suited for /r/buildapc. Troubleshooting questions should be directed to /r/techsupport. Thank you again!

    If it’s shutting down completely, it could be the CPU overheating. The Ryzen 5 2600 is a pretty low wattage chip, so either your cooler isn’t doing its job or thermal paste could be dry. Hard to say without seeing the PC or a video of it shutting down.

    Edit: There could be other things at play, but it’s hard to say. Power supply not supplying reliable voltage to the motherboard or CPU could cause similar issues.
