PC reboots when playing certain games.

I recently built my first PC, and I ran into a problem. When I play games like League of Legends, my PC works fine. However, when I play other games like Sea of Theives and Beat Saber, my PC reboots. The strange thing about it is that I play a game called A Dance of Fire of Ice, which even a lemon can run, and that also reboots my pc. I do not get a BSOD, it shuts down as if I turned the PC off and on again. I've also ran Time Spy, with no reboot. All of my drivers and bios are up to date, I'm on the latest version of Windows 10, and my temps are reasonable, around 60-70C. Full load CPU temp is around 80-85. I've searched my problem online, and I think the problem might be my PSU.

MSI BIOS ver. 7C02v35

Specs:
Ryzen 3600
RX 5700 XT Red Devil
MSI B450 Tomahawk MAX
OLOy x2 DDR4 16gb 3200
Corsair CX750M(the white version)

It'a bit high, anything above ~75c makes me nervous.

Any budget cpu cooler you can recommend?

The PSU is a critical piece of hardware and i would spend some more money to get a high end one.

A weak ago i bought the Seasonic focus plus 750w Gold

He was asking about a budget CPU cooler, not a PSU.

Get the Snowman CPU Cooler from Aliexpress.

 

Offers better performance than the AMD stock cooler at a cheap price.
