Check external devices and recently installed hardwareĮxternal devices connected to your computer, such as external hard drives, memory cards, optical drives, can sometimes cause automatic shutdowns or restarts. However, if the CPU and GPU temperatures are within the normal range, please continue to refer to the following troubleshooting steps. In such cases, it is recommended to contact MSI's customer service center for further assistance. If, after following the above troubleshooting steps, the CPU and GPU temperatures still remain abnormal, it could indicate a need to replace the thermal paste or a faulty fan.

Maintain airflow through the computer vents: Ensure that the vents of your computer are not blocked by hair or dust, as this can hinder the cooling efficiency.

If so, try closing them and see if the temperatures improve.

Check resource usage in Task Manager: Open Task Manager and check if any applications are abnormally using CPU, GPU, or other system resources.

Note: If adjusting the fan speed does not effectively reduce the CPU and GPU temperatures, please consider the following: You can also choose 'Advanced' to customize the individual fan speed levels. Select 'Fan Speed' → 'Cooler Boost' → Click on 'Save'. Select 'Features' → Choose 'User Scenario' → Click on the small gear icon located at the bottom right of the 'Extreme Performance' icon. If either of the temperatures exceeds 95℃, it is recommended to enable the 'Cooler Boost' function to increase the fan speed and keep the CPU and GPU at appropriate operating temperatures. Open MSI Center → 'Hardware Monitoring', and check the CPU and GPU temperatures.

Check external devices and recently installed hardware.

If you have experienced this problem, please refer to the following troubleshooting steps. Hardware issues, software malfunctions, high temperatures, or an unstable operating system can all trigger automatic shutdowns. In general, there are many reasons that can cause a computer to shut down automatically.
