Computer auto restarts

[jackson6643]

My rig restarts after hitting a certain temperature around 70c, it works fine when it is under that temp. It auto restarts afterawhile when i play fifa 16, however if i on my air condition and drop the temp to around 50c the computer does not auto restart when i play. What is the problem? is it the psu or gpu? would love some help!

 

Gpu: Zotac Gtx 970

Psu: Superflower leadex platinum 550w 

 

Thanks!

Try opening side panel(s), underclocking cpu (if aircooled) and make sure theres proper airflow tru the case

did not overlock my cpu and the temps seem fine, i opened side panels for the temps to drop but i am concern is that the computer should not be restarting when the temps is only 70c

where are you getting the 70c temp from?

from HWMonitor on my gpu

Your rig is overheating, that much is obvious.

 

Give us some specs, and both the CPU and GPU temps under load.

Is there any indication of software forcing a restart on the motherboard bios?

37c on the gpu and 41c on the cpu.
