@Tijment please provide more information like what behavior is the pc showing;

Like how often does it restart? 

Does it restart while your using or is in a reboot loop?

 

My suggestion at this moment is unplug your system check to make sure all you components are plugged in / connected securely.

My pc resarts randomly, somethimes within 10 minutes twice. Sometime once a day. And normaly while gaming like Minecraft, gta V and city skylines. But now a few times it has restart while watching youtube... I've unplugged end replugged everything but it doesn't help. 
My pc is plugged diractly into the wall outlet.

Did you add anything new to your PC? it being a new component or even software? and when you say restart does it Black Screen then boots up again or does it freeze?

Some people prefer a challenge, I just band my head against a wall until my method works...

I do not have a new component, it shows me a black screen en restarts.

Could be a possible Power Supply Problem. Similar thing happened to me. usually just a good clean of the PSU removing dust etc should do the trick if not you PSU could actually be failing for some reason. Too high of a power draw or a faulty component taking more than it should

So just a bigger power supply?

Well whats your current Wattage of the PSU and what parts are in your Pc?

 

Because could be the Power Supply can't dish out enough power to run everything or it could be that a components became faulty and it causing spikes in power draw causing the PC to reset.

I was thinking of buying a ASUS Nvidea Geforce 1050 ti and a bigger power Supply

Hmm you power draw is only 400w on a 600w PSU so if its cutting out something might be faulty in one of the parts. Possibly

Do you have 4X4g memory sticks. If yes try removing one at a time to see if you get more restart.

 

I had the same thing happening. That auto restart with error messages and found that removing one of the stick, cure the restart. I am sure i have defective ram stick
