I CANNOT HANDLE BEING CALLED OUT ON MY DUMBASS OPINIONS ABOUT ANTI-VIRUS AND SECURITY. I REALLY LIKE TO THINK THAT I KNOW THINGS HERE

INSTEAD I AM GOING TO WHINE ABOUT IT IN OTHER THREADS SO MY OPINION CAN FEEL VALIDATED IN AN ECHO CHAMBER I LIKE

I recently bought an Acer Aspire ES1 for light use and the thing has been randomly turning itself off. Not a controlled shutdown, just sudden black screen. Turns on fine afterwards, may or may not repeat behaviour. No pattern to when, it's done it playing games and browsing the net.
Event log shows a Kernel Power Event at the time of power off.
I've tried reloading Win 10 and all drivers are up to date.

According to hwmonitor chip temp doesn't go over 60-ish C.
Only seems to happen when unplugged.

Is it still under warranty? If yes, RMA it.
