When i try to play games like Rust , LoL , Drakensang , Hitman my computer restarts after 10 or more minutes can someone tell me what the issue is ? Also after shutting down it opens a menu with my power some kind of reboot mode and so on. Here are my specs : Ram : 16gb CPU : Intel Core i3 - 6300 3.8 ghz GPU : Radeon (TM) RX 470 Graphics. Is there a chance that it could be of my computers size because its not very big? Do i need a new thermal pasta?

Second, it could easily be the PSU is simply dying or undersized.
