    Hello all so as the heading suggests I deed some help .

    So I'm trying to build up a P870KM out of parts I have but something Is bothering me . On both my 1070 and 1060 the unit powers down after around 2min of use .

    GPU temps look ok in GPUZ 47° And CPU 45°

    Could any one please give some advice as all I'm thinking is motherboard bios update / change .


    Regards Damin

    PS. I have updated a short video of the issue.

    Are all the fans plugged in?

    It might also be due to the vbios on the graphics cards is making the EC freak out.

    I tried my other 1070 ... No luck

    Could it be the power switch board my power switch board is from a P870DM3 and this is a P870KM .... I'm perplexed by this.

    You could try shorting the contacts but that could be a bit dicey.
