Hi I bought I new Power Supply Unit and GPU to play games with my build. It was working fine for 2-3 days until I got a Power Kernel error. Before I installed it I forgot to plug in the heatsink which I powered up 3 times, the computer was installing drivers for 3 minutes then I noticed it was shutting down because it was getting hot. Once I noticed I put the heatsink back in and everything was working fine until 3 days later as I stated I started getting Power Kernel ID 41 error in event viewer. I started panicking and started trouble shooting, using different power outlets, making sure everything was plugged in, used my old GPU, don't use a power extension and everytime I play a game which is usually I am assuming CPU reliant like a game called Clicker Heroes and a PS2 emulator it will sometimes crash, sometimes I can play longer, other times not so long. Note these games are more CPU reliant, I tried playing MGS V I got some time playing it and it did the same thing.

That is the error that came in Event Viewer. I do have a warranty on this and i might call up but I want to confirm the possible issues so they can look into it. Anyone got any ideas? I have had sometimes the computer running longer watching videos and playing games and some other times it will do it 1 minute later as soon as I launch a game. I tried reinstalling drivers again and removing too and updating windows. I am using Windows 8.1.
