Using a Max X with a relidded 8700K at 5.1 GHz (rated 5.2 by SL) all core/1.35v Vcc, U14S cooler, 2x8 GSkill 4266 set at 4000, Seasonic Titanium 850w PS. My power mode will change from Balanced or Maximum Performance to Power Saver. Other times the Sleep setting changes from Never to One Minute. The timing seems random, usually within 30 minutes to several hours after turn-on. There are strong case fans, and the board doesn't seem to be running hot.

This doesn't seem related to the GPU installed or the version of Win 10. It doesn't seem connected to loading, and happens at idle. ??
