My fellow readers: my issue is different. If your system reboots you have a BSOD, you have some events and logs etc.
If you are not having a power shut down like I do, your issue is different but still possibly related.
Small update to my issue: this also happens in the training grounds but it takes way longer until it shuts down my PC, twice as much (about 30 mins)
Utherr93 The PC is rebooting in the middle of a game? That's usually a hardware stability issue.
Try these steps one at a time so you know which one fixes the hardware crashes.
1. Update the motherboard BIOS firmware to the latest version.
2. Disable XMP/EXPO memory overclocking in motherboard BIOS.
3. Downclock GPU core and VRAM frequency by 200MHz.
4. Disable both PBO & CPB in motherboard BIOS if you have an AMD CPU.
If still reboot crashing I'd run memory error checks with HCI MemTest.

OskooI_007 Never have I ever mentioned rebooting in my posts. I only mentioned shut down, there's no rebooting involved.
PS: I tried everything there, there's nothing wrong and does not help my issue.

Utherr93 seems like a faulty RAM stick to me, but you said they all tested good.
The only thing I can think left to try is installing one RAM stick into the motherboard at a time and seeing if the PC crashes and shuts down.
Through the process of elimination you might discover which one of the RAM sticks might be faulty.
Having 4 RAM sticks installed puts extra stress on the memory controller. Only having one RAM stick installed will lessen the stress and be a good test.

I could try that, but why doesn't it happen when I used to play DCS World in multi-player where the game alone consumes 35GB of ram?
