Hello Pc Wizards :p ,

First of all I am not that familiar with pc components and how they work, I can build my own pc and search for a good gpu/cpu and thats about it :p .

I upgraded my pc with a GigaByte GV-N970 G1 GAMING gpu and a new case Sharkoon VS4-S. Since these upgrades I have had problems with my pc restarting during gaming (mostly rust and the Total War series). The restarts don't give any error codes just a black screen (almost if you pull out the power cable) and then the pc just restart like normal. Sometimes I can play games for hours without a single restart and some days I restart after 1 hour of gaming and then every 10 minutes of gaming. I have no clue what the problem could be, I think it is no overheating problem because I monitored my temps and my Cpu doesn't reach higher temps then 50C and my Gpu not higher then 60-70 during load. This might be helpful but the restarts during games usually start when there is like a explosion or I die (rust mostly). I run windows 10. I already ran memtest on my ram and didn't have any problems. ( the problems are only during gaming, not with normal use )

Specs:
Tower: Sharkoon VS4-S
Gpu: GigaByte GV-N970 G1 GAMING
Cpu: I5-4590 3,3 GHZ
Psu: CoolerMaster GM Series G750M ( 1 year and 8 months old )
Ram: 4x 2gb Corsair Vengeance DDR3
Motherboard: Gigabyte B85M-D3H
Ssd with boot; Adata SP550
Hdd with files: Seagate Barracuda 7200 750Gb


I don't have a lot of money so I cut some expenses on my motherboard and ram ( ram was upgraded from 2x 2gb )

Please someone help me!
