"Tiny Tech" sounds like it might be one of those countless craptacular PSU brands, you may want to replace it with something more reputable if you can. A dying PSU is a very common cause for systems that worked fine to start randomly rebooting or shutting down while under heavy load, such as when loading games.

If you have a known-good spare PSU or PSU you could borrow, put that in to see if it fixes your issue. If it does, aim for a better quality replacement to avoid future issues. Look at this list for inspiration:

You want to aim for tier three or better.

What is the exact PSU brand and model in that PC and how old is it? The PSU is usually the first thing that dies, unless the PSU kills something else first. If you have no clue what your PSU model is and bought your PC pre-built from a generic shop/brand, you most likely got whatever the special-of-the-day was when your PC was built, which is typically junk.

You open the computer case and look at the PSU. There should be a sticker with the vendor's name, model number and specifications on it. If you are lucky, it will be on one of the visible sides when you open the case. If you aren't, you may need to remove the PSU from the case to find the label.

If the PSU's brand is really "tiny tech" then I really think you should try a different known-good PSU.
