HAPPY FRIDAY GUYS!!!

So I'm playing NFS Rivals when my pc freezes. So I reboot and start playing another game. This time my p reboots by its self. I then play Thief when it happens again. This all took place in about 15 min. The first time something like this happens. Please help I want to do some brain damage gaming today!

open the pc check that the pc fans are working and there not a kitten growing inside your pc. download msi afterburner check the gpu fan make sure it can spin up to 100 percent. make a newer fan profile to max the fan out at 60c. if the pc reboots and the temps are fine it could be a bad part in the power supply and it not holding. (cheap or low end units will do this).

I bought my RAM at the begining of the year. Now I do any thing it reboots. Install something and it reboots. Trying Ubuntu then going to install BitDefender

I solved the problem. What I did was unplug the gpu, fans, and cd rom and only booted with essentials. I found that the pc no longer did this, so I plugged everything back and problem solved
