I recentely updated my kids pc a bit, I bought them a sapphire r9 270x vapor x
but ever since i installed it the pc randomly restarts during games. It only restarts during certain games though. tomb raider, bf4, rome 2, games like garrys mod and tf2 run fine and so does netflix, youtube, and any web applications.

the build is

4GB G.Skill DDR3 PC3-12800 Ripjaw Series (9-9-9-24)

AMD A10-5800K APU 3.8Ghz Processor

MSI A55M-E33 Mobo

coolmax cu700w psu

Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 500 GB SATA 32 MB Cache

Rosewill Dual Fans MicroATX Mini Tower Computer Case FBM-01

I have already reformatted the pc and installed the gpu drivers but it still happens
 
Solution
I'm thinking you need to upgrade your psu to a quality unit. A good 550W supply like XFX Seasonic...
Edit Where do you live? We can find one for you.
