K so I have a new pc. Built myself and had a few problems getting it to turn on. Turns out I had to short two means that aren't even the power connector ones. Anyway I got everything setup, Windows 7 blah blah. I move it to my room from kitchen, cause kitchen had better lighting for working conditions. I turn it on and bam, it shuts off after maybe 7-15 minutes. Now I'm thinking it could be cpu over heating. It is hotter in my room. I left the computer on bios and slowly watched cpu temp climb. At about 39C it shuts off. Is that an over heating temp? It sits at that for a while before it shuts off. I haven't updated drivers yet, could that be a problem?
Build:
Cpu: Intel i7 3770
Psu: kingwin 750w
Motherboard: asus p8z77 - v lx
Gpu: radeon hd 7970
I also took off the heat sink after getting frustrated and taking everything apart when it wouldn't start, did that mess with the thermal paste? It looks evenly applied. When it shuts off, it's just off, no warning.
Please help
