Hi,

Merry Christmas.

I can only suggest you don't overclock the CPU. You have a 10700k, a 2080 Super, and a 120 mm liquid cooler.

The PC is shutting down because the power draw is overwhelming the CPU cooler. The stock CPU cooler cannot cope with the additional heat created when overclocking the CPU.

How are the 2080 temps when you game and you overclock? How are CPU and 2080 temps when you game at stock timings?

You need a better and larger CPU liquid cooler (240 or 280 system) and more chassis fans. I don't think your chassis can handle a larger CPU liquid cooler.

Yeah stay away from overclocking, its not going to work. Those of us that are using the 10850 and 10900k versions of the Omen 30L, can't even use it at stock speeds, let alone overclocking, the temperatures while gaming are going over 95C and the CPU is thermal throttling. The only solution for us is better cooling solution, but for you probably just don't overclock, I have another one with 10600K and is doing just fine with the stock AIO.

Ok thanks i will stop playing with overclock , the stock clock max is 4,66 ghz on cpu and 70 degrese  ,and the RTX 2080 Super is 83 degrese  at gaming  ,it all runs perfect  hours of gaming......

70C is an excellent temp, great to hear that!
