It is likely that your computer will shut off again. Make a note of what hardware was where and undo that final change. If your computer stops shutting off randomly, look at the last change you made.

Switch RAM slots and sticks and monitor.

Remove the graphics or audio card before switching on again.

If you use external audio and/or graphics and you have onboard, temporarily switch to onboard audio or graphics and retest.

Replace and try another if the computer shuts off.

Remove one PCI card or RAM stick at a time and monitor.

Return your BIOS to defaults and return to stock clocks if you overclock.

Unless something is obviously smoking, has melted or burned or is otherwise damaged, it is a process of elimination to find the culprit. Usually a computer power supply can cope, but refining that voltage using a power strip lower the stress on that power supply.įaulty hardware is notoriously difficult to troubleshoot but is rarely the cause of random shutdowns. Even in the newest cities, mains voltage fluctuates quite a lot. It not only protects it against those surges but also cleans up voltage from the mains. needless to say I am extremely pissed off since I have no protection if the power goes off under load.I always suggest using a surge protecting power strip for a computer.

So just to make sure, I fired up that same benchmark and then pulled the plug from the wall. that makes since because xbit says the other similar Seasonic built psus will not work on the batteries at over 280 watts.

that of course forced my pc off since it was using 325 watts. What must have happened that day was a slight power loss or self test on the UPS that made it use the batteries for a split second. They were stable at loads up to 370 watts when powered by the mains but couldn’t work even at 280 watts on the UPS batteries. Like its Seasonic progenitors, the Antec Neo ECO 620C refused to be compatible with my UPS. I just figured out the problem thanks to the xbit review of the 620 watt version of my psu.
