Well since you just added a GPU i'm gonna go ahead and assume the GPU is the problem.

can a GPU just shut down the computer?, i ran a couple hours of benchmark when i installed it and that went well

It may be that your power supply isn't quite up to the task. Sometimes they will run just fine for an hour or two at full load then shut down. Try upgrading to 750 Watt, perhaps?

I've built 3 PC's, but none for myself... In fact, I'm using an iMac that my dad bought for me as my desktop. Awkward...

Please don't say "SSD drive." By doing so, you are literally saying "Solid State Drive Drive" and causing my brain cells to commit suicide. The same applies to HDD (Hard Disk Drive) and PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express).

if 650w is too little why do kalkulators say my setup uses only 500w? (MSI, CM and PCPP)
