Hi all.
After a recent upgrade to my pc it's started to randomly shut down after being left alone for a while. I've added a new Gigabyte Z77MX-D3H, I5 3570K CPU and a Samsung 840 250gig SSD.
I built my first pc in 1998 and have done various upgrades since then so am quite savy when it comes to compiling a rig together. When i'm using the pc it's running it's fine.....cool temps,games run well etc etc. I've looked into the bios settings of the new mo/bo and can find nothing that may be out of sorts.
I've not overclocked anything yet and was quite anal about thermal paste application and cpu cooler (venom) seating during the build. So over heating should not be an issue. Google has not helped much so i'm asking you guys if you have had any simular expiriences or have any ideas as to what may be the cause of this somewhat niggling issue.
Cheers.
Steve.
