It just forcefull shuts down at once (screen goes black)? No BSODs?
Menthix, the PC forcefully shuts down (screen goes black) with no BSOD.
I just finished cleaning the internal parts of the PC, there was dirt beyond imagination, to the point of clogging all fans (CPU and case fans). After cleaning everything, I ran CPU intensive tasks and no shut down. I hope things keep stable. I will download your suggested monitor and post temperature results.
By the way, this is the MOBO of the PC:
