Computer keeps going off...?

Hi all, build as in sig, been perfect for a while but recently even sitting at windows the monitor will just go off as no power and I have to turn machine off and back on by the button.

Sometimes it'll come back on, others it won't? And have to repeat the process.

Originally thought my GPU had given up as was only doing it during BF4 but now I can't even browse the net sometimes...

Think it could be my PSU? Machine is only just ove a year old and is really isn't used much.

Cheers

I'm assuming you have done a virus and malware scan?

Also is your PC by a radiator?

Best to rule out the simple stuff first

Have you checked hardware connections inside the case? Tried removing ram? May or may not be a hardware problem. The PSU you have looks reasonably decent, any ideas on the sort of temperatures your getting on your GPU/CPU?

Hi, yeah no viruses or anything like that and machine isn't next to a radiator.

CPU gets upto about 50degrees on a game, and pushed with prime 64degrees. GPU idles at 28 and when at load hits high 60's.

I've just been into the bios and I know software isn't the best for reading but I don't have a tester.

PSU voltages are showing
3.3v is only 2.862 and in red
5v is 5.040
12v is 12.080

It's gone off again now and won't come back on, dunno if to keep trying or not incase I damage something.
