GPU Turns off and restarts PC when i open any intensive game.

This just started happening today my PC is 5+ Years old so i was kinda expecting this to happen at some point.

Specs :

CPU: Intel I5-3330
GPU: Nvidia GTX 970
Motherboard: Asrock B75 Pro3-m (I know its old)
Ram: 6GB DDR3
PSU: Corsair CX 750W

I used GPU-Z to log the temps when it crashed:

I've been looking on this forum for the last hour and seen alot of people with this problem, most suggestions are buying a new PSU, just looking for any infomation.

Thanks

the 970 is not 5 years old? lol the CPU may be old but you have good components, only thing i would be worried about after 5 years is that motherboard, that being said it sounds like a heat issue, that or power, what temps do you get when you try to open a game? CPU and GPU temps please, use coretemp for CPU, MSI afterburner for GPU

Update - Talked to Corsair Support and they took back my PSU and said it was faulty and gave me a deal on a new one got a Corsair 850 W 80 Plus Gold, PC now runs fine.

Thanks for the help.
