The PC is shutting down 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.
- Update the motherboard BIOS firmware to the latest version.
- Disable XMP/EXPO memory overclocking in motherboard BIOS.
- Downclock GPU core and VRAM frequency by 200MHz.
- Disable Turbo Boost for Intel CPU. Disable both PBO & CPB in motherboard BIOS if you have an AMD CPU.
If PC is still shutting down and crashing I'd check for memory errors with HCI MemTest.
