Help on PC restarting intermittently

[Sensational]

Hi guys,

Would like to seek some help here.

Recently my PC has been acting weirdly and when I am doing work, the PC will just suddenly auto restart for no reason. It occurs intermittently and on some days it will be fine but sometimes it will occur like 2-3 times per day. It is damn annoying when you are doing work and the PC just restarts like that.

My PC is only about a year old and my specs are on the right. Could someone kindly enlighten me on what could be the problem?

EDIT: I have checked the temperatures using the temperature monitoring software and everything seems to be in the normal range.

Thanks in advance!

have u done single ram test and see?
download memtest and see the results. test it in each slots with a valuable ram u have.

Better to download and run memtest86.

something wrong with the ram? okay can I will run the test and post the results

normally this kind of issues have few possibilities.

1. mobo
2. ram
3. psu
4. gpu.

but since u already say that the temp is at normal range den we can rule out gpu and cpu.

even if no heat issue, failing hardware can cause problem too....

well yes. we can only monitor the heat but other parts we cant monitor, so could be some parts dmg on the pcb.

random shutdown or restart can be due to faulty psu.... just kena that not long ago, psu tested faulty by distro.... got it replaced and problems gone...

that time I also not sure what's wrong but I think power related problem usually is the psu.... so I try my luck bring my psu to distro service centre, psu certified faulty by the tech.... PSU only 1++ year old....
