Switching to power-saving mode during a game

I've already seen a similar topic on the forum, but decided to create a new one.
It all started after I decided to make a small upgrade of my PC, here are its components after the upgrade:
processor - Intel Xeon E3-1230v2
Video card - RX570 4GB
PSU - cougar 700w (don't ask where it is)
1155 based on h61 chipset.
Let's go back to the upgrade (I put in a new video card purchased on Avito and bp, also purchased on Avito), for about a week everything worked just wonderfully, but then the problem started.
During the game, the PC began to switch to power saving mode (not always, only sometimes, for example, once a day, but sometimes several times a day). I sinned on temperatures, cleaned the PC, in addition. I inserted another plug into the power supply of the video card, cleaned the contacts on the RAM and the video processor, and it seems like the problem is gone.
3 months passed and the problem returned again, obviously the problem is in the power supply unit or in the video card, I don’t know what to do, I would like to hear some advice from you (now, when switching to power saving mode, firewood sometimes flies).

tried, unsuccessfully, with the temperature of the video card in the region of 75 degrees

sometimes, after a reboot, the firewood of the video card flies and gives error code 22. I just tested in OCCT, the operative, video card, CPU and bp half-hour test at full load passed without any complaints, which I can’t imagine

Could this be the issue?

... a video card purchased on Avito and bp, also purchased on Avito ...

If the kit is used, what was done with it before the sale is known to one seller.

yeah, now I cleaned the contacts of the lastiklm, blew the dust out, put it in - two days without problems, let's see what happens next

If after cleaning the contacts for some time everything works fine, and then problems again, it is possible that the contacts are oxidized over time. Either they were originally like that, or someone cleaned them so that the entire protective layer came off.

I mean, the PC goes into hibernation/sleep, am I right? Is the computer connected via a UPS?

I had a similar problem, but only the drivers did not fall off. I solved it as follows - set the power settings, as in the screenshot. If you suddenly did not change these parameters, try it, it might help.

thanks, I'll try, but so far for more than 2 weeks after cleaning the contacts on the video card and the RAM, the problem has not appeared

I've already seen similar threads on the forum, but decided to create a new one.
We started after I decided to do a small upgrade my PC, here are its accessories after the upgrade:
Processor - Intel Xeon E3-1230v2
Video card - RX570 4GB
BP - cougar 700w (do not ask where it is)
1155 basis on the h61 chipset.
We're back to the upgrade (put a new graphics card, purchased at auctiono and PSU, also purchased at auctiono), for about a week everything worked just fine and fine, but then the problem started.
When playing PC went into power-saving mode (not always, only sometimes, like once a day, sometimes a few times a day). I blamed the temperature, cleaned the PC, put in auxiliary power to the video card, cleaned the contacts on the RAM and video card and the problem seemed to go away.
Months passed and the problem returned again, clearly the problem in the PSU or in the video card, I do not know what to do, I would like to hear from you any advice (now when you go into power-saving mode sometimes flies doors).

As a result, after two weeks the problem reappeared, I noticed a drop in BP 12v line to 11.4, suggested that the problem may be this, replaced the BP and for about a week, the problem did not appear, let's see what happens

Hmm, well, 11.4 is sort of the lowest acceptable value, in theory. Still, a very low and momentary voltage drop below 11.4 might well have caused the problems described above.

So, replacing the PSU might have been a good idea indeed. Unless, of course, you replaced it with some kind of "xas".)

It's been about a month and so far everything is fine.

No, I didn't replace it with xas, I replaced it with deepcool

Deepcool as a whole is fine. Well, I hope the problem is solved once and for all.
