Desktop reboots when gaming

[Stargazer09]

I've recently encountered this situation where playing games (specifically, Fallout 4, The Crew and Diablo 3) causes the PC to reboot after a few minutes. However normal usage such as web browsing does not have this problem.
Any ideas what could be the underlying issue?

could either these :

GPU failing
PSU failing
maybe software issues?

Monitor the temperature of your CPU and graphic card. May be due to overheating.

yours might be ram issues...or other memory issues like swap mem (which uses the hdd as part of the ram)

U can download MSI Afterburner or ASUS GPU Tweak to monitor graphics card. Core Temp 1.0 RC8 for CPU.

Which power supply unit are you using?

To my knowledge normally if no bsod normally could be psu as not enough power?

If random crash. Graphic distorted n stuff normally gpu or ram
