So I get into WoW's and five minutes into a match my computer resets. It goes straight to reboot to clarify.

I don't think it's my hardware:

CPU: R5 1400
GPU: RX 570 (4g)
RAM: Corsair 8gb 2400mhz
PSU: 460w

Could this be a power draw issue? Could this just be wows' software? Anyone have an idea?

See the thing being that when I'm playing wow's (or any game/synthetic load) I pull around 110w from my GPU according to MSI afterburner. If I push things to the limits I can pull just under 130w. It doesn't black screen, it doesn't reset. After keeping an eye on my ram load I've noticed that sometimes wow's pulls well over 8gb of ram and when it does this resets happen. I think it's a ram issue/wow's game engine being greedy. I'm not sure, but I know when I lower the settings in wows things go really well. That being said, I'm confused, why doesn't the unreal engine do this at max settings? Idk, wows isn't exactly known for a highly optimized game engine, and I'm thinking this is one of the side effects of the constant updating involved with this game. Once again, I'm no pro, so I don't know.

Actually the problem lies in the poor wiring of my house. Apparently an amateur electrician did a majority of the electrical in this house, needless to say, hire professionals out there.
