Hi Guys ,

So after i done watercooling loop i started using my pc and find out that pc power off itself in various times , its never same time , sometimes powers off after 5 min sometimes after 5 hours sometimes its work ll day until i switch it off.

I really don't now why it doing this and really don't now how to fix it .
Pc is not yet overclocked at all and bios is set to default settings .

Any one have same experience ? any one can suggest me how can i fix it ?
After its power off and i switch it back i don't have any error message, first i was thinking problem can be Raid0 but even when i disable raid0 its doing the same
Specks are :
4930k
rampage 4 extreme
kingston hyper-x beast 2400MHz (1330 at the moment)
corsair ax1200i PSU
2x GTX 780ti

I will welcome any suggestions
 
i'm not 100% sure but don't think its do ,
After few hours i received pc i start doing water cooling loop so i don't run pc for few days on air cooling.
So i cannot really comment on air cooling , but if i remember i run air cooling for like 5 hours without issue.
But there is a chance that this 5 hours on air cooling was not enough to show off issue.

So yeah i run pc on water cooling for like 2-3 weeks and its keep power off in various times
 
Are you keeping an eye on the cpu temps? Is it possible that a problem with the pump or a possible airlock is causing poor flow meaning the cpu will reach the point of thermal protection kicking in?
 
Have you actually been in front of the PC when this occurs? e.g. does it just go dead or does it actually do a "proper" shut down?

I had a similarish problem with my PC, turned out to be a dodgy fan RPM wire (e.g. PC thought that the CPU fan had stopped working so shut the PC down)

Anything in the System event log?

yes i'm always by pc and its just go dead like if its power cut.

well that good question ,
I have Aerocool fan controller with supports 4 fans , and i have 6 fans , so i have to purchase 3pin fan spliter as on picture and connects 3 fans in one , 2 fans in one and sigle fan and connect to fan controller,
I have issue with this Aerocool fan controller as power 4 pin cable is not good and if i touch it its switch off fan controller so i have to check always when i switch pc on if fans are spinning. but anyway i don't think this is the issue as fans are not connected to motherboard at all and i always checking temps and i also have XSPC LCD Temperature Sensor (White) V2 + G1/4" Plug Sensor so i can see temps anytime and quick


Anything in the System event log?
no event log is not showing nothing at all .

first i was thinking that PSU is doggy but i don't think its PSU i think its must be something with system , i read somewhere that badly placed components can be a issue , by the look inside my system all look good but one never now if GPU are not badly placed in pci or anything else . removing them and placed them again is hard for my as i will have to drain all loop and than again flood it .
really dont no what to do .

Sorry for my bad English :-)

Sounds like something is shorting out a component from time to time and component short protection is kicking in.

I would start off by unplugging EVERYTHING and re-doing the cabling. Often a sketchy cable is the source of these problems, whether it is a cable which isn't completely insulated, shorting contact points at the back of the motherboard or it is a dodgy plug not making a proper connection.

Would also loosen the CPU cooler a tiny bit and see if that works.
 
So i try reconect everiting and reseat GPU and RAM and not help , so i removed wotercooling loop and set pc on air cooling and is doing the same .
After some time i found this error log , hope someone will can help me with this as i really dont no what is it about

Any help ???
 
My PC has been doing the exact same thing, random shut downs every so often for no reason.

Tried upping the RAM volts and all was well, until last night.

I have dectected a small leak in my loop that was filling my PCI socket so the PC was shutting down. Check your loop to ensure you havent lost any coolant. I only noticed as I had a small air bubble in my system that just wouldn't go and suddenly I had half a pipe empty.
 
Thank you for your advice DASTON but i find out what's wrong finally ,

Idiots when they repair my PC and replacing PSU and MOBO for new they fcuked up socket and blend one pin on socked , i'm now 90% sure this is a issue .
I removed water cooling loop reseat GPUs change PSU , change RAM and on end b4 i went reinstall win i found out socked pin was bend , glad i found out b4 i reinstall win as now i can RMA mobo and if i will reinstall win they will don't have win error log files with they show i don't change nothing in PC
