Hi, ive just recently built up a new PC of mine and after a day the PC is now starting to just turn itself off. The monitor goes black and then it restarts as normal but giving me an error and asking me to go to safe mode or start windows normally.

My specs are.
- Asus Sabertooth z77 Motherboard
- Hyper 212 CPU Cooler
- Intel i5 2500k
- Asus 560ti
- Corsair 760 Full Modular power supply
- Green braided cables if thats of any interest
- 16gb ram
- 1tb HDD
- 128gb SSD

Ive checked the temps on speccy and they average 35 - 40 degrees.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

I do sometimes get a warning at the start about the cpu cooler fan running slow. It averages 600 - 700 RPM.

I have looked around and people are saying it could be power supply but it could also be the cpu fan not running as fast as it should do. but I really don't know.

Could I get some professional help please.

I'm no pro but ive had this problem before it may just be that the power plug is loose or if its under a desk and something is hitting it slightly your computer will turn off thats all I can advice exept maybe clean it out?

hmm Im pretty sure I wont need to clean it out because its basically brand new. I could try and re plugging in the power supply cables to see if they're all in properly. Im sure its not hitting anything so yh thanks for the help.

If the power cable is not the correct wattage that could aslo be a problem
