I'm having some trouble with my PC. When I turn it on, it only stays on for a few minutes before my monitors go black, even though I can still hear my friends on Discord. At the same time, the PC starts making a loud noise, like the fans are working overtime. It's strange because sometimes this happens multiple times in a row, while other days it doesn't happen at all. I've checked the temperatures after restarting, and they seem normal, so I'm not sure if overheating is the issue. What could be causing this?

It sounds like a tricky situation! Make sure to check the temperatures while you're using the PC, rather than just after rebooting, since the cooling might make it look fine once it cools down. Let me know how that goes!
Hey there! Have you looked at any debug lights on your motherboard when this happens? Also, trying to reinstall Windows could help if there are any software issues. Checking the event viewer right after a crash might give you some clues too!
I will keep an eye on that and check for lights next time. Sometimes when I reboot, the monitors say inactive and won’t connect unless I unplug and re-plug them. I haven't tried much other than running diagnostics, which come back normal.
Yeah, I have checked the temps after rebooting and didn’t notice anything concerning with the temp change.
