My gaming computer turned 4 in February and now that it's no longer under warranty things are going wrong. This week in the middle of a project the machine rebooted on its own. It restarted but shortly after did it again and again..I still have free tech support and two tech's offered help on what could be causing it. First I replaced the cooling system thinking the one installed failed and the cpu was overheating doing it. It still rebooted I purchased software called Hardware Monitor to see if the power supply voltage was bad but it seemed ok then I swapped out the memory in case there was a bad stick. It still rebooted. My support tech feels it still could be the power supply and suggested I replace it. I was told that I would need to buy the exact model and that buying any other would require a complete rebuild of my PC. Since the computer is 4 years old the power supply isn't sold anymore.
I was wondering if it's true that my computer would need to be completely rebuilt if I bought a PSU that wasn't the same.
The power supply is a Enermax Galaxy EVO 1250w model egx1250ewt
My computer was made by Digital Storm
More system details available if needed
