Hey everyone! I'm a 19-year-old who's been using this gaming PC my mom gave me for about three years now. I've noticed that when I play high-demand games like Warzone, Fortnite, or graphical Roblox games, my monitor turns off and the fans go nuts. I'm really confused about what's going on. Here are the specs I know: 32GB RAM, an Nvidia 3070 GPU, and an AMD Ryzen 7 3700X. If you need more details, just let me know. I really need to get this figured out—gaming is my escape! Thanks!

It sounds like your power supply might be struggling to keep up with the demands of those games. When you're pushing the system hard, it can lead to overheating or power issues that cause the PC to shut down. Before freaking out, you might want to check your temps using a monitoring tool or see if you can measure the power supply output—those are key factors! Let me know if you need tips on checking temperatures or the power supply.
How do I actually check my power supply? I can see temps through NVIDIA stats, but the power thing is new to me!
