Ubuntu 20.04 shuts down suddenly

My Ubuntu 20.04 shuts down suddenly, without particular stress on the machine (just while surfing the internet).

From cat /var/log/kern.log | grep 'Error' around the last shutdown time:

I am on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 INNO3D.

Any Clue?


Thanks to the suggestions in comments, I came to the conclusion to reset my BIOS to default settings. It turned out that so far so good, no sudden reboots in the last 12 hours.

Probably was that.
