lately im getting shutdowns under load, did a reinstall of windows, repasted cpu, but still getting shutdowns. just tried a game and it happened again, i even not overclocking anything, cpu fan is constantly going, so suggesting something cpu related, core speeds seem to be constantly bouncing around at idle, and temps fluctuating, but temps are all fine, its a hard lock and restart. even if installing some software programs it shuts down. lots of errors/warnings in event viewer. when it shuts down, but im not expert
any ideas

currently full stress testing cpu and gpu but using igpu. both are fine, well as fine as the cpu can be as throttling due to the 240mm cant cool it:cry:. hmm i will try pulling a stick of ram and see. the psu ive had no issues with at all tbh its been fab, its a decent one the G2 hence why i bought. i only have 2 storage devices, both m.2. both under a yr old

Update. All seems ok ATM, plugged back into GPU and ran a game, temps fine. But aio fans still constantly running. Not sure if it's an aio fault. I've got a phantom spirit coming tomorrow to see if there's an issue with it. On a side note when I got the cooler then fans were set to suck warm air out rather than draw cool air in strangely
 
Front of case is my aio. But was blowing rather than drawing in fresh cool air. Oh not saying that's an issue as temps are fine when gaming. Well when it wasn't locking up. Just wondering if a faulty aio could cause issues electrically speaking that's setting off something else. Maybe clutching at straws but trying anything ATM. But 3 sessions on starfield yesterday and was ok and one thing noticed was fans on aio weren't ramping up as used too when installing or gaming, just a constant speed since direction switched . So maybe the aio was maybe part of an issue?
 
What case have you got?

Can you put the radiator in the top with fans extracting air and have some intake fans on the front?

Am sure the fans on a AIO do not turn off, they just run at a low rpm at idle.

If you removed any parts while fault finding, maybe something needed reseating.
Mesify c. Had issues for a while, took it apart yesterday dud the aio fans the right way but did same. Si gave up. Popped pc back on and had them few games and noticed fans weren't ramping up since turned to suck. But my other aio's I never heard the fans unless under load. These are constant and even tried changing profiles but makes no difference. Anyway I been gaming couple hrs this morning temps all fine. Just can't figure out why all of sudden it's fine but not complaining :cry:
 
No oc on CPU. It's in a B board so didn't think able too. But everything seems to be ok for the moment, games for hours yesterday with no issues.
Odd thing just seems to have righted itself as everything installed as it was. I've got a phantom spirit but haven't bothered installing as all seems ok ATM.

Cheers for help
