Hello, My computer keeps shutting down automatically when i am logged into world of warcraft i only get 15-20min in the game then it gets turned off. Then i have to power it on again.?

Sounds like either an underpowered Power supply (did you upgrade the video card and not the PSU ?) or overheating (how long has it been since you cleaned out inside the case to remove dust\etc. from the fans on the CPU and Video card etc. ?
