I don't exactly know what's happening with my PC.

Basically, I've been using this computer for a fairly long while and had no problems with it whatsoever until recently, when playing games, my computer will completely shut itself down within an instant.

Another thing, if it can help; I CANNOT watch any type of video/stream while a game is open is in the background.(used to be able to)

Operating System
Windows 10 Home 64-bit

CPU
AMD FX-8350

RAM
8GB Dual-Channel DDR3

Motherboard
ASRock N68C-GS FX

Graphics
AMD 7850HD 2GB OC edition

Thanks for the fast response and sorry for my late one:')

But in terms of temps; Both GPU and CPU hover around 55-60 under load

As for the PSU I am running a OCZ-CXS500W

If the PSu is the problem then I can easily upgrade and give you an update as soon as I can! :)
