After around 10 to 20 minutes of using my PC, like when I'm watching YouTube, it suddenly crashes and emits a very loud noise. I've double-checked all my hardware, cables, and drivers, and everything seems fine. Here are my specs:
- MSI Pro B760-P DDR4 Motherboard
- RX580 GPU
- 2x32GB RAM
- RM750E PSU
- 13th Gen Intel i5 13600K CPU
- AK400 Zero Dark Cooling
This setup was built on a budget by my granddad, and I'd really appreciate any help for this issue!

Another thing to consider is that there have been reports of issues with some 13th Gen Intel CPUs. Make sure to check if you need a BIOS update—it might resolve the crashing. If that doesn't work, you could look up if yours is one of the problematic models; Intel extended the warranty for certain CPUs due to this issue.
It sounds like you've got a couple of things to check. First, can you describe the noise a bit more? Is it a grinding sound or more like a buzzing? Also, it could be a cooling issue—double-check that your CPU cooler is installed properly. If the problem started off the bat, make sure you don’t still have the plastic sticker on the cooler!
I can’t really explain it well, but it's like a distorted buzzing noise. At first, it was a quick pop, and later it became this white noise or buzzing sound. The fans seem fine though.
I've read that it might be related to the PSU. Have you looked into that?
