My brother has reported that he is getting shutdowns (hard reboot) during lengthy gaming periods. I'm not at home so looking at the best way to test this by me giving him verbal indicators.
From what I remember his setup is:
1600AF
MSI B450 tomahawk Max
RX580 GPU
Case is MSI mag vampiric (I think but will confirm)
I think if it were a PSU issue, it would happen fairly quickly. In starting to think it's heat related once the case is getting up to temperature.
Should I get him to run a CPU and GPU benchmark test to get the temps up quicker? Something like prime95 and furmark at the same time?
