I recently obtained a MSI Geforce GTX 970 4gd5 OC, after installing and playing graphic intensive games such as PUBG and The Crew 2 open beta, my pc shuts down and will not start back up unless I disconnect the power supply and plug it back in, all fans go off but my motherboard still has a green light indicating it's getting power, uncertain if it's a gpu or cpu problem, can anyone help? PC specs:
MSI Geforce GTX 970 4gd5 OC
2x4gb HyperX Red 1600 Ram
AND FX 8350 with Cooler Master T2
A 1TB 7.2K hdd
EVGA 600W power supply
Windows 10 Pro

That's really odd. If you run all the parts through pcpartpicker.com, you come up with a total wattage of 379w. I mean...not all PSUs are created equal, but that is really surprising. Is it a 600W White? What kind of case are you using, and how is the ventilation? And what is your motherboard? Have you checked your cpu and gpu temperatures? Was the gpu used? Is the fan on the gpu running? Is your PSU fan running?

@caledbwlch PSU is black, GTX 970 was used and reached 80°C max, CPU reached 60°C I believe, case is very well ventilated with side of case removed, motherboard is a GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3P, and no, PSU fan is not spinning.
