so my PSU confirmed died the other day so i went and bought a new one. later on that night, i go install, PC was able to turn on but died after about 30 minutes.
so i send to a shop and it said mobo failure. mobo got warranty, so i went to corbell to RMA. corbell took a look, was able to stress test the mobo for 30 minutes and said it was working fine.
so i went home and plug back everything. Pc was able to turn but after 15 minutes, it rebooted. after that, it started to keep rebooting every few minutes till i off the PSU power.
so my mobo is fine, PSU, graphic card, RAM is all new. the only thing is processor. the corbell guy did told me that my chip seems to be dry because no more thermal paste. so i was wondering
could the lack of thermal paste cause my PC to keep rebooting?
