Hello!
I built the Customac Mini Deluxe from the specs of October 2017.
Everything works fine but the system is unstable.
I am having random reboots on light loads and in 100 percent of the cases on heavy loads in MacOs Sierra 10.12.16 and also on a fresh HighSierra Install.
For exemple :
Any help or clue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

I built the Customac Mini Deluxe from the specs of October 2017.
Everything works fine but the system is unstable.
I am having random reboots on light loads and in 100 percent of the cases on heavy loads in MacOs Sierra 10.12.16 and also on a fresh HighSierra Install.
For exemple :
- Handbrake makes the system crash.
- Cinebench too.
- Photoshop sometimes.
- I am not getting crash reports in /System/Logs. This looks like a shutdown not a kernel panic.
- I am not overclocking the system and am running the vanilla install instructions I got on tonymac.
- I tested the stability of the built on Ubuntu 16.
- Windows 10 runs smoothly.
- I ran MemTest and got no errors.
- I ran multiple benchmarking tools on Windows. Everything is producing normal results.
- running on a single 16GB memory stick
- lowering the DDR4 frequency to 1866 in the bios
- disabling turbo mode of the cpu in the bios
- Intel Z270i Strix Gaming
- I7700K - Internal graphics hd 630
- 2x16GB Crucial DDR4-2400 UDIMM PC4-19200 • CL=17 • Dual Ranked • x8 based • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • 1.2V
- Intel Stock CPU cooler
- SanDisk Ultra II SSD 480GB
- PICO PSU 150W
- Up to date bios
- I did suspect the RAM, but 1 hour and 10 minutes of MemTest ended with no errors
- I thought of a faulty/overload PSU but I ran stress tests in windows and it seems to hold strong.
- I also thought that he crappy Intel CPU cooler was the culprit but when I launch HandBrake or Cinebench the system reboots instantly, hence not because of the CPU running hot but because of something else.
Any help or clue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot!
