My PC keeps shutting down

[Spartaxuss]

Hi all,

I just came back from overseas and my PC kept shutting down after 1-5 minutes from booting up. It just lost power and everything went black except my monitor which went stand-by.

My Specs:
Biostar TH67XE
Intel Core i7-2600k
4 x 4GB ADATA RAM
PowerColor TurboDuo R9 280X 3GB GDDR5
750W Power Supply?

Thank you for your help.

maybe u can try removing the gpu and clean the ram contact, and insert 1 ram to test it.

I tried removing my GPU and 3 sticks of RAM, it runs for a bit and turns black...

did u try each ram stick? beside that if it does not work probably might be ur psu or mb is die.

Yes, I tried one stick at a time before, still have the same problem. If it is MB, it is going to be expensive since my CPU is old...

do u have any spare psu or mb to test it out?

most likely is psu or mb, if your mb is relatively new, then chances are the psu's issue

I don't have any extra, also my mb is obsolete.

I bought the $73... Cheaper than replacing mobo+cpu. Latest i5 also not as good as your i7

For your case, replace psu first
