I just gave my pc a much needed upgrade in the graphics department replacing my gtx 260 with a 960. Since I switched out the parts the computer has randomly shut off as if it were unplugged multiple times. I saw where some said heat may be an issue but when monitoring this last time the GPU temp got up to a high of 70 C but was in the low 60s at the time of the crash. The cpu peaked at 67 C but was in the mid 50s at the time of the crash. Are these temps too high? The PSU is an older and I believe cheaper model but is rated at 1000w and hadn't given me any issues until the hardware change. I was just wondering what is the most likely problem causing the crashes.
Computer specs in case they help
CPU :Intel Core2 Q9550 quad core @ 2.83 GHz
GPU: GTX 960 2 GB
8GB DDR3 RAM
PSU: Ultra x3 1000w ATX
