Hello,
I finished my first build on Friday. Today (Tuesday) it started powering off at random. I was just browsing and installing Skyrim mods (Skyrim was not running) so it seems an unlikely time to overheat, but I don't know what else would cause these abrupt shutdowns. Is there a program you guys would recommend to monitor temperatures? Is there another cause I should be investigating?
