I'm dealing with a frustrating issue where my PC shuts down unexpectedly during stress tests with OCCT. I've recently replaced both my RAM and power supply, but now the computer powers off abruptly during the memory test or CPU + RAM usage. It can happen anywhere between 2 to 30 seconds in. I've checked that it's not overheating, and I'm using the latest stable BIOS. Here's my parts list for reference: ASROCK A320m-HDV R3.0, Ryzen 5 5600x, G.Skill Ripjaws 16x2 DDR4 3200MHz, GeForce GTX 1080Ti, and an AMD Wraith cooler. I really don't know what to try next!

It sounds like you might want to check the XMP profile settings in your BIOS. Sometimes, incorrect memory settings can cause instability. Also, don't forget to check the outlet you're using; try a different one just to be safe.
I disabled XMP and tried running both 2133MHz and 1833MHz. Unfortunately, the same issue still happened during the memory test.
