Hi there,
My PC is shutting down only while playing some games and I want to ask if anyone ever had a GPU overheating that causes the PC to shutdown?
Also my old PSU is from 2011 and has bad cables which already had a bit of voltage drop so yesterday I just bought a Corsair RM750X Shift, but now when I press the power button on the PSU and shut it off my the motherboard power go OFF instantaneously and I never had a PC where this happened unless changing the power settings in the bios.
Basically with all PSU's and PC's I ever had turning OFF the PSU power button the motherboard keeps having power for a few seconds and with my old Corsair AX750 that also happened but now with this new RM750X Shift it doesn't happen and I wonder if it's normal?
I already have the PC shutting down problem for many years but it was so rare like 1 time in a year that it was always fine for me, but got worse however the cables on the old PSU were all bad and voltage would drop so I had to keep messing with the cables until I get full voltage and kept working for all this time, but lately it just keeps shutting down.
This problem already came from 3 different motherboards and 3 different CPU's...
Yesterday I thought on GPU being bad since it run from day 1 always at max temperature downclocking at 87Cº and have been at 87Cº on all games since day one when RX480 released, this is a Strix RX480 OC which has a badly poorly designed cooler sadly, I also already changed it's thermal paste 3 times (I think the latest one in it is Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut). Basically I put in a burn-in test and I stop the 3 GPU fans and bam after a few seconds the PC shuts down, doing it in software setting fans to 0 while in burn-in test the same happens.
ps: I thought pretty much any modern GPU for quite sometime would not go to meltdown point of shutting down since they all downclock pretty badly if temps go pretty bad, but my GPU might also have some other hardware problem, but in it's bios it indeed has a Shutdown temp of 91Cº but the GPU never goes beyond 87Cº because above like 85Cº it starts to downclock and 87Cº it it's bios max temp where it just keeps at that value and keeps throttling and basically even with the fans stop it shuts down while keep showing 87 on the software even though it might simply not be picking it up right...
