Thanks to anyone who helps me with this.

So recently while playing certain games my pc just goes into like sleep mode or what have you.
Display goes black, pc is on but unresponsive and it stays like this for a while. As well the CPU fan goes off like crazy. I have cleaned the fan and heatsink so it's not dusty and I'm not sure what the problem is, I have heard it could be a PSU thing but I dont know.

Anyone who can help is appreaciated

Download HWMonitor. It is a product from CPUID. It will record the maximum temps while you are gaming so you can know how hot your processor is really getting. Also, some AMD board's have voltage regulators which are known to get very hot, once they reach a certain temperature, they will begin to throttle you game or even shut off the PC. So, download HWMonitor and let us know what temps it records.

Should I use amd overdrive and do a stability test and screenshot the temperature it stops at?

Unfortunately I had my pc pre built since at the time I got it, I did not know a single thing about pc's at all
and I kind of regret it now, and I have no thermal paste:(
