hello
so my newish (cos +6months old now) PC with r5 3600, b450 tomahawk max, rx570 is dead - now its switches off - lose power - while starting it up and trying to even launch web browser
at first when it occured - like few days ago i thought it must be psu - anyway its coolermaster 80+gold but after i wasnt so sure - cos came to realize it can be mobo - i think it maight been overrun with components - cos fast m2.nvme, 3600mhz cl 15 ram on xmp, and new ryzen (not so new one now ;/) and mobo is just upgraded old generation one - thus i think it could be too much for her but not sure
i even thought it can be power strip fault - but i pluged it to wall socket and was same
after i swapped gfx card for my old passive one (power drawn from mobo lane only) but after few hours working ok it turn off again
and now it sits in corner and i dont know what to do - i got warranty for all parts but i dont know which one is faulty and which one to send for it
problem descripted more precisely looks like this - over some hard process utilize (games that happend with first) PC switched manually off - with clink sound just like typical one at end of normal system closure, but next what after i couldnt power it on with case button for it - had to turn off psu switch from 1 to 0 for some time and than it started - so here was clue for me that maybe psu is faulty and it went with some antithermal or other protections
mobo at start doesnt alert any errors
tried downloading all windows updates and amd radeon drivers before it started to become scarry - like this happening minutes after logging into windows, now im afraid to even turn it on
idk what to do
any help of info appreaciated
thx

i looked at cpu/gfx temps and fans speed with cpu hwmonitor - nothing out of accepted standards
also checked if voltage isnt too little and it was both at 1.375V for cpu and memmory

what is outlet/power bar?

If socket is at fault the issue will continue.
Try a full disassemble and reassemble.

After that its process of elimination time piece by piece.

yes i know that best solution would be to test part by part
but i dont have this opportunity cos i dont have spare parts
old pc is on intel platform new is amd

but i was about maybe someone recongnize those symptoms and can guide me which components could be faulty
PC turns off - loses power - and stays like it - only waiting some time and manually switching power button on off on psu - can turn it on again
i know that there can be many wine candidates - but for example if that would be CPU problem system would freeze hang etc reset - but well idk...
there is no sound error from motherboard niether

anyone got a clue?
