Sys specs:
CPU: AMD FX-6350
RAM: AMD Radeon™ RE1600 Entertainment Series 16GB (2 x 8GB)
VGA: GIGABYTE GV-N770OC-4GD GeForce GTX 770 4GB
PSU: Rosewill Xtreme Series RX750-S-B 750W
PC will shut down after an hour or so while playing BF4, Farcry 3, and BFBC2.
I've monitored the temps and usually run mid to high 50's while gaming.
I am using the stock HSF (4 heatpipes)
Is the shutdown due to overheating or is there something else that will trigger the CPU led shutdown? Sometimes the system will repost on it's own, but I usually have to hold the power button to powerdown the system and then restart it.

The PSU does not shut off. I have monitored voltages and see no problems. Fans and USB are still powered when the shutdowns occur.

I have been unable to find out what causes the cpu led to come on. There is not much help in the MB manual or ASUS website.
