This is the PC:
Mobo: MSI H110M ECO
CPU: Intel i5-7500
GPU: MSI GTX 1060/6GB
RAM: Corsair 2x4GB LP 2133Mhz
PSU: 460W with 500W Peak ( http://imgur.com/cS1Tu5O )

After about 7-8 minutes of stressing the GPU with GPUtest the system reboots.
I run 3 test simultaneously.
I think the PSU just can't handle it, but i find that a bit hard to believe if it should be able to get 460W.
This PSU has already been at work for 5-8 years, so that might have something to do with this, its also the first time its being used in a build with a decent graphics card (previous was GTS450 and worked great)

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the reply, it was infact the PSU.
Apparently NVIDIA recommends 21A on 12V for these graphics cards, which this PSU could not deliver as it seems to be splitted to one 16A and one 15A.
