New PC Rig Keeps Crashing During Games

Hello,

I recently had a new PC built for myself. Around December 1. First, I upgraded the motherboard, RAM, GPU, and CPU. The PC ran great (aside of PUBG not loading in the first game/stuck on load in screen) but now, as of almost 2 weeks ago, every game crashes on my PC. I thought it might be the power supply, because I googled a lot and that was a solution. I'm not really smart when it comes to computers, so I didn't know my old power supply wasn't sufficient enough, and the person that built my PC didn't tell me (it was only 350w).

I changed out the power supply this week to an 850w one, yet my games are still crashing. Games that crash the most would be PUBG, Overwatch, and CSGO.
My whole computer is basically new aside of the CPU Cooler and Case, which I will be upgrading today, I'm just really running out of options on what it might be. Even though the CPU cooler is older, I've checked my temps during gaming for both CPU and GPU and they're normal. Aside of games, whenever I watch Twitch streams, and Youtube videos, sometimes the site crashes as well.

Also, aside of the crashing, I think it would be helpful to note that after every few hours, when I turn on my PC, it will shut itself off after a few seconds before even booting up the OS, and I'd have to press the power button again.

This is what I'm currently running:

Intel Core i7-7700k

16GB DDR4 RAM

MSI Z270 SLI Plus

MSI GeForce GTX 1070

Rosewill Gaming 80 Plus Bronze 850w Power Supply

I've reset my Windows, however, that didn't stop the crashing, I'm lead to believe it's a hardware issue (because of the powering off every time I turn on the computer) I'm just unsure how to pinpoint the exact problem.

Thanks in advanced for any help.

 
Solution
Are you overclocking?
Reset BIOS by removing cmos battery or cmos jumper after it powers down and turn off 'O-' switch on psu, see if the issue persists
when you say crash, can you describe in details?
are all drivers up to date? Including all motherboard drivers and gpu, also bios.
