PC restarts sometimes when playing games.

It's staring to scar me mentally.

 

My PC is restarting when playing games.

 

So 2 months ago I changed my motherboard, cpu and rams. From ddr3 to ddr4. Then it started restarting, I really thought it was the cpu, the fan was 60W and the cpu used 100W. So I changed it to a new tower cooler. The problem kept happening, so I thought it could be the gpu. (Gtx 1660) So I changed it to a 3070 ti.

 

AND IT KEEPS HAPPENING!

 

I have a Corsair 750W power supply. Maybe that could be the problem?

Or something is messed up in the BIOS?

 

I downloaded HWinfo and the driver for the cpu, it's not showing that the cpu would be overheating.

 

Thank you if anyone could help me out here!

What cpu are you running?

 

I love PC building and gaming. 
REMEMBER botttlenecks can happen at all points of a PC part. Make sure you are at equilibrium. For all parts unless you intend to upgrade at a later point. Also QA Tested AAA Games.

Okay I checked your profile for the CPU. 

I think I figured out the issue, I think the PSU might be the issue here. If things aren't over heating.

Hey man, thank you so much! I'll ask a friend if I can borrow his psu and I'll try it out.

One more question.

 

Maybe if the cpu is factory defected, could that lead to this problem?
