My PC keeps restarting unexpectedly while gaming, what could be the issue?

Hey everyone, I need some help! I've been playing Valorant, and my PC restarted out of the blue without any blue screen or warning. I tried reconnecting to the game and it happened again after about 5 minutes. The strange part is that it didn't even create a MEMORY.DMP file. My computer is basically brand new; I built it myself just a week or two ago. Earlier today, there was a power outage and I unplugged everything after that. Once I was sure the power was back, I plugged it in again. I'm worried about what might be causing this issue, especially hoping it's not a problem with the power supply since it's a good certified Xpg model. Any ideas?

Check out your Event Viewer to see if there are any error logs that could help pinpoint the problem. It's a great tool to track down unexpected shutdowns or restarts. Here's a link for a how-to: [Event Viewer Guide](https://youtu.be/R9T7oYNhwW8?si=MD8e9w7jscLHRloy). Let me know if you find something useful!

I'll definitely check that out after I run a RAM memory diagnostic. I'll keep you updated!

I had a similar issue and found a kernel power 41 error in the Event Viewer, but no other details. Might be related to your power supply or some hardware issue.
