So the problem started like 2 weeks ago in CS:GO. My PC just shutdown and immediately restarted. I made no changes to software or hardware. After that it happend several more times and only when I played COMPETITIVE matches. NEVER in deathmatch...now it crashed regularly in cs:go competitive matches and Fallout 4 and star citizen, so the crash happens after 5 minutes ingame and is reproducible..

my System
Intel Core i7 4790k
Asus z97-a
2x 8GB Kingston HyperX Beast 2133MHz
Asus Radeon r9 290X OC Edition
Fractal Newton R3 (1000W) Link:http://www.fractal-design.com/home/product/power-supplies/newton/newton-r3-1000w

What i've done so far
installed NEW SSD with new OS, currently 8.1
installed older amd drivers 14.12
ran Memtest86 -> No Errors
ran Prime95 -> no Errors
ran FurMark -> no Crashes
installed MSI Afterburner and set "force constant voltage"

The only thing that helped to play a game longer than 5 minutes was when I set the Power Limit in ATI Catalyst Control Center to -20%

...i've no idea what else i can test. Any advice or help appreciated!

i am tired, sry for typos

try playing the games in lowest possible settings and see wether the problem still persists
and un overclock your gpu if you have over clocked it
and are there any messages like bsod or any other
