    Anyone would know why my comp is shutting down by itself no warnings just a "click sound" then it's off the ventilation seems working good as i can feel the cool air coming off the fan anybody had experienced that before??

    Maybe the processer fan is out. Sounds like overheating to me.

    A regular fan wont cut it, so youre telling me that you open the side of your case, and took the cpu fan off the heatsink and have a regular home fan blowing inside your case? you need to get a new cpu fan. and pray that you didnt remove the HSF unit.

    check your heatsink for fluff
    check the cpu fan is going round
    the air coming out the back of your box is almost certainly the power supply fan
