You hear a click from the CPU? I got nothing, that is odd.

So just let it run, should be fine.

Could be a power supply issue.

Is it just chugging along, then suddenly no warning, the screen goes black? Or have you only witnessed this remotely?

At home everything running great since I put SSD in, but 2 times about 10 min apart the screen goes black and the computer restarts itself. Hasn't done it since I started this thread, but would like to know if there is anything I should look for if it continues.
Thanks.

Whats a good temp for computer to run at when just at desktop? Also in the ASRock tuner the fan speeds are reading zero, but the fans are spinning?

install core temp and see if cpu is overheating. Mine kept restarting when thermal paste between cpu and fan dried out causing cpu to overheat. it could be other issues though.

The click makes me think power supply, but it could be a number of things causing the power supply to do this. Just gonna be one of those things where you'll need to test individual parts. Check your CPU temp as said above, and also check your PSU fan and see if it's even spinning.
