Hi, my PC keeps randomly shutting off recently, at first it was just while playing games but now when I'm just browsing it shuts off. Checked the temp of my hardware all <60 deg. Is there any way to rectify this other than opening the case up? Because I have a feeling it could be my GPU, as my GPU is bending slightly in my Sharkoon BD28 because it is too heavy...

But otherwise, what could it be? TIA

MSI B85 G43 Gaming + i5-4460
Gskills Ripjaws 1600mhz 2x4GB
Powercolor R9 280X 3GB Turbo Duo

All below 60°C should be OK.
Try the following:
1. Reinsert all rams
2. Check the CPU voltage using monitoring software
3. Use WhoCrashed to check on the error generated

Take out ram and GPU. Clear their gold finger. If suspect gpu take out G card and use IGP (on board graphic) see if this happen again. For ram use one ram to run and subsequently changing the slot see if ram slot faulty or ram.

Hey all, took out the RAM and put it back in and so far so good, played a few hours of CS:GO last night with no shut offs.

I did the Whocrashed program as well, there was no error, I even did the test to see if my computer saves the dump files, which it did when it did the crash test.

And pic of the HWMonitor results in the gyazo

*Not sure why the program sees my GPU as a 7970 though, or is it essentially the same thing?
