I've been having a frustrating issue where my PC keeps shutting down randomly while playing Farthest Frontiers, and sometimes it even restarts on its own. Now, it won't stay powered on for long — the time it stays on seems to vary. This issue happens even when I'm not running any applications, and it's so bad that I can't leave it on long enough to check for updates! Any advice or tips to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

It's worth checking the event viewer to see what's causing the shutdowns. Look for any error codes and search them online — they might help point you towards a fix. Also, try running a stress test on your GPU with a tool like FurMark to see how it handles thermal limits.
Start by running a RAM test with MemTest86 if you can. Also, keep an eye on the temps and voltages. You can check the event viewer for errors, though it might be tough if your PC can't stay on long enough. Good luck!
It sounds like your power supply might be the culprit, especially if it's been in use for about six years. If you can, share your PC specs for more insight!
There could be a mix of issues here. Make sure you're monitoring the temperatures, as overheating can cause the system to shut down to protect itself.
