Hi, I just built a computer for a friend and he has contacted me to say that basically his computer will just randomly shut down.

I am trying to find out what could cause this. The System just shuts down as if there has been a power cut...

 

If anyone could help it would be much appreciated.

 

Here's a list of the parts used: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/jVjmHx/by_merchant/

 

Thank you in advance! <3

Sorry about that, its sorted now,

Just to add he also said that it always happens when he is playing minecraft, on skype and listening to music.

ask the guy how temperatures are, i feel like this is a thermal issue on the CPU side.
