All drivers are updated have tried multiple ssds i dont have a power supply to swap out to try another but mine isnt over heating as it can happen literally 2 mins after startup but its not even relatively hot so i am really confused at this point and no one seems to be able to giove me an answer any help would be appreciated.

Hi Muzzy2002,

This post was a little hard to read due to your sentence structure. 
I am take it your issue is that your machine will restart after about 5 minutes of use then stabilise? 

How long has this been happening? Also if you running windows 10 it's possible it ran a windows update and restarted without your consent. This has happened to me a few times even in the middle of rendering videos. 

If windows update is not the issue, possible power supply issue but would need some one else on the forums to back me up on this or not.

Note: i am just having guesses as i do not believe i have ever come across this issue as such.

Yes I have windows 10 it's not an update issue been happening about a week also would it help if I plugged it straight in the wall rather than into a multiple socket thing forgot the name

I don't think it makes a difference if it's on a power board or directly into the wall. 
You can give it a go and see what happens. 

I still feel as if it's related to the power supply some how. You may have to take it to your local computer store if no one else can help resolve this issue over the internet.
