I need some help...

Hello, I need a little bit of help. I built my new computer a while ago about a month or so. It worked perfectly fine. Until today, when I turned it on it started, then turned off, started, turned off then worked perfectly. Then I went away from my computer so I turned off my computer. When I came back it didn't do what it did the first time today. But the problem is now when I am using my computer it Randomly turns off and restarts, no warning, no anything. Any ideas??

 

Thanks

Like i always suggest, Look through the ram, Pull it all out and put one stick of ram in every slot after every shutdown. If that doesn't work try to get your hands on a older card so you can slap that in the system and see if it crashes. And also, The list of your Specs would be a Nice help
