Are you overclocking anything on your machine? i.e RAM CPU or GPU? When is the last time you updated drivers? When was the last time you reinstalled OS? What OS are you using?

Hi, It might be a power supply issue or heating related. Try monitoring the temperatures under load. If OK, maybe RMA-ing the power supply would solve the issue.

Down load Fur Mark and run it to monitor how hot your GPU is getting. You can find it here

Also, did you get any Blue screen or Windows errors when it reboots? You might want to check on the Event Viewer.

Open Event Viewer by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Security, clicking Administrative Tools, and then double-clicking Event Viewer.‌ Administrator permission required If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

Look under the System logs on the pane, for any warnings that may indicate what is going wrong on your system.
