got a used i7 3930k with 4gb of ram(1333mhz) on the Intel Desktop Board DX79TO(in a pre built)


i added a gtx 970
500w power supply
2x4 gb ram (1600mhz)
1tb hard drive

pc starts fine (for some reason i cant go into the bios it actually beeps when i spam "del")when i get into a game and play for 5 minuets it instantly restarts my pc?
 
Solution
-your temps under load look within specs good.
- double check ram is sitting well in it's slot ( re-seat it for more assurance), run memtest if needed
- check SYSTEM voltages under load with HWmonitor

-What PSU BRAND ( quality of PSU ) brand are you running at 500W? what is it's rails configuration,

look at this thread with same issue >> System randomly rebooting when under load >> link>>http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2496897/system-randomly-rebooting-load.html
TEST:1
to do : test under load but limiting GPU ( graphic card) power under full load and they did not have a system crash proving it's a PSU issue
TEST 2 swap in a quality PSU from a good known brand like Corsair, seasonic, evga even 500W or better 650...
