My PC has restarted 3 times already and I can't really determine what's happening to it.

Basically , The 3 instances my PC have crashed , was while playing music (Spotify / Youtube).

This has never happened to me before and I'm getting really frustrated mainly because of the fact that I can't find a damn reason on why it's happening.

I know it's a stupid question but it's worth a shot if there's maybe a reason why Spotify or Youtube may be a contributing factor to these restarts?

The restarts have been very weird , It's like I'm pressing the restart button or some shit but I'm not... No BSOD , No freezes. Just immediate blackness and restarts like normal.

I don't think these specs are relevant because it hasn't happened before but I'm gonna provide it anyways just in case I'm wrong.

Specs :

2x 4GB Ram Hyper X Blu
AMD A8-5600K APU
NVIDIA GTX 960

I also forgot to mention that this happens whenever a game loads or something whilst Youtube or Spotify is playing.

ex . Dota 2 goes to loading screen whilst Spotify / Youtube is playing music then it crashes.
Skyrim loads a save and as soon as I enter the game whilst Spotify / Youtube is playing music , 2 seconds later my PC restarts.

The only games that I play at the moment is Skyrim and Dota 2. I run both games on high settings.
As I've said , This has never happened to me before. It just started to happening and I have no idea why.

I can run Skyrim and Dota 2 just fine. Last week I was able to listen to Spotify / Youtube anytime. But right now it seems like I can't play games while using spotify / youtube anymore.

how are your cpu temps? my old pc crashed a couple of times with no warning and no temperature alerts before or after crash. after trying a million things it turned out my cooler was just not cutting it and under load it would hit 100 degrees and shut down
