I have a FX-8350 CPU on an ASUS M5A97 micro atx board. As of the last year my pc has been shutting off randomly when i played video games. I thought well maybe the games were too intense for my cpu or my graphics card but no they were not.That was very frustrating because it started occurring after i got watch dogs. Now my problem is that even when im browsing the internet and watching a youtube video my pc shuts off. I check my CPU temperature and it is always very high. I decided to water cool my pc and i got the H80i GT installed into it thinking my gaming and temperature would improve. I was mistaken because my temperature is still really high (slight improvement from before) but it still shuts off on me multiple times an hour. Do you think i need a new cpu? I tried making sure the water cooling was snugged and made full contact with the cpu. I know for a fact its not the water cooler. So like i said is it time for a new cpu? I can hear my pc fans pick up speed as i write this , so i know its going to shut off soon....

Yeah so my current voltage on my cpu is 1.43v and it says it should be at 1.33v. I've looked online and seen lots of videos but i still dont understand how to lower the voltage in the bios because people who post videos are only trying to overclock the cpu.
