That sounds like a thermal reset of the power supply. Check if the power supply fan is turning. Also check if the fan is clogged with dust. Some cases have a filter on the bottom that can be clogged with dust as well.

Particularly if the case is set on the floor, the power supply fan on bottom acts like a vacuum. I pulls dust up off of the floor and clogs the power supply.
