Hi, I’ve been having this problem where my computer just shuts off and then boots the system again. I’ve never had this problem on when I was using windows. I do not know what to do.
Any help would be appreciated.
Start with supplying your hardware info. Post the url.

When does it happen? Under heavy load? After a long uptime? Did you overclock anything?

It just happens randomly and I have underclocked my cpu so that the power usage is not that high and my cpu Temperature is not as high, I set the VDDCR CPU Voltage from 1.472V to 1.2V. And also set the Eco setting on this bios on this ASUS PRIME X570-P - AMD X570 motherboard.

Was this issue happening before you underclock?
To confirm it is not because of that, reset to default settings and test for changes.
You may need a better power supply unit.

My power supply is EVGA SuperNOVA 850 G5, so I don’t think I need a better one. The system is running 80W at idle and is aroung 180-200W when playing a game.
I run an MSI X570 board and i have zero issues.

There are two newer UEFI Bios updates for that motherboard. I suggest you do the following. Update the UEFI Bios to the latest version 4602 dated 2023/03/14. Before that I would uninstall the following package on Cinnamon if it’s installed.

Yeah, please revert the changes and see if that helps. Windows and Linux might be stable/unstable with different settings. Right now there are multiple potential causes, let’s sort them out one by one. 850W power supply should be more than sufficient.
