Help! My PC keeps crashing. I've had games crash from overclocking/instability before. However, I've never had crashes like this. Yesterday I was a few hours into playing the new expansion in Destiny 2 and my entire PC instantly turned off as if I pulled the power cord out of the socket. Since then, it's been happening more frequently. Today it crashed only about 20 minutes in. Usually, it runs perfectly at 4k getting anywhere from 130 to 165 fps in 4k max settings.

 

My only guess is that I may be overloading my power supply? Any ideas would be appreciated
