My custom built desktop have been around for say about 4 months or so.. However, last weekend I start to have this problem whereby when I play games after awhile say about 45 mins or so, it will auto shutdown and boot up by itself again, and if I play game again, the cycle repeat. It only happens when I game, but if I surf normally like watch youtube and movies etc, it doesn't happen

Initially I thought it was CSGO issue, however I tried it with GTA 5, the problem also persist.. Anyone know what is the problem and what I can do to solve it ? In addition, my desktop temperature when gaming hovers around 40 - 45 degrees only though, so I don't think it's a critical temperature issue.

PC Specs:
i5 - 4590
MSI H97 Gaming 3 Mobo
MSI 970 Gaming edition
Samsung 850 evo 500 gb ssd
Gskill 8gb ram
WD 1tb HDD blue
Corsair H100i (water cooling)
Corsair RM550 PSU

use msi afterburner's on screen display and check the gpu and cpu temperature, see if either one of them are overheating when you play games.
