I can load up the game, and play... but a few minutes in and it will restart my computer. Looking in the event viewer I see this:

Log Name: System
Source: Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power
Date: 07/02/2014 04:49:30
Event ID: 41
Task Category: (63)
Level: Critical


i5 4670k 3.40ghz
16GB RAM
Geforce gtx 770
MSI Z87-G43 GAMING Intel Z87 Socket 1150

First day as a windows 8 user and already stressed out!

You don't have the power to run it... you need to make a Power Profile for max power settings... Also check your PSU... it could end up killing your CPU or GPU... those are main causes of restarts while gaming.
