|
|
I am using Intel Core i5 7600K Cores: 4 | Threads: 4 | Base clock: 3.8GHz | Turbo: 4.2GHz | Socket: LGA 1151
I think the CPU configuration like this is okay to work and play games. But when I use it again too slowly. I just play some simple games on www freegames66 com but my computer sometimes automatically shuts down. I even use that normal text editor. I do not know the reason why, or do I need to upgrade something else? |

| A computer won't shut down because your CPU is too slow. It sounds like your computer has other issues. |

I'd reinstall Windows first
Save all your data to external drive and do a clean system install.
Make sure you have antivirus software. |

I think that too.
Overheating makes the pc shut down to prevent damage.
The pc in itself is pretty decent. |
