Hello, I have just constructed a new computer, but every time I attempt to play a video game the computer reboots. Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare, Counter Strike:GO, and Battlefield 3 all display this problem. 2D games like Castle Crashers and Battleblock Theater haven't displayed any issues, and Spiral Knights was alright as well. I will gladly post any log/run any test you instruct me to, just let me know what I need to do to help me help you.

P.S. The Processor and Motherboard are the only new-new parts, I had been running the others in another machine for the past ~4 months.

Dumping the first part of a DxDiag so you can get the specs:
