Possibly overheating?

Does the problem occur when you run other applcations or a heavy load on PC?

Roll back on the overclocking. Check temperatures. Be sure all fans are connected and running. Ensure that the PC's ventilation holes are not blocked in some manner.

Look in the computer's Event Viewer logs. There are likely to be some log entries with error codes or warnings just before or at the time of the shutdowns.
