Hey, I'm having trouble with my computer. Last couple of days my computer is just dying randomly and won't turn on again until I've disconnected the electricity and waited for about 5 min (Usally when or right after i play BF4). At first i thought the computer was overheating, but last two times the computer died i checked if it was hot inside and it wasn't, but I'm still not 100% sure about it. So i thought it could possibly be too small PSU.

I have CX600 Corsair PSU to power Gigabyte AMD Radeon HD 7870 2 GB GDDR5, intel i5 3570K, 2xHDD 1TB, 1xSDD 128GB, 4 fans and DVD/CD-RV combo.
Could the problem be that i have too small PSU? But then again i don't understand why the computer wont turn on again right away.
According to http://support.asus.com/powersupply.aspx I should have 650W PSU minimum.

Hope you guys can help me with this.

After the computer dies everything is off but the "ON" light on my motherboard is still orange. So there is at least some power going through the PSU after the computer is off. If i don't wait long enough before i try to turn the computer on again, it will just turn it self on for about half second and then die again.
