Days Gone restarts PC

Hi all, strange issue this after playing for a while monitor goes black and pc restarts! This is the only game that affects this, I have ran memtest successfully, ran OCCT power stress test, CPU, GPU and RAM for 6 hours passed. Real Bench also passes! Any ideas? I do have iCUE installed and have heard that can cause issues. PSU is HX850i which is a very good unit. Mobo is ASUS Dark Hero, with a 5900X, 32GB of G. Skill Trident Neo B-Die at 3600MHz, GPU is 3090 under custom loop with CPU so temps not an issue. Any ideas driving me mad!

Have you tried the common fixes like running days in windowed mode, etc ?

Will try turning off iCue and run in windowed mode tonight.

Thinking it may be the 850i I do have a ton of stuff connected including my custom loop 12V is getting hammered, upgrade PSU?

Are you overclocking anything?

Yeah mild on the GPU and use CTR on the 5900x

Put your cpu back to stock see if the issue goes away CTR gives pretty suspect overclocks, best do the same on the gpu, you will be forever trying to work out if its bad overclock or hardware issue

a restart is usually cpu limited, if its gpu from experience it would freeze and hang. CPU or stability issues are generally restarts and blue screens.

As others have said, i would revert all your overclocks back to stock and try again.
