GPU overheating or knackered 
A PC with lots of gadgets inside and a thing to see in 3D that you put on your head.

The GPU would throttle before it would overheat, but yes, the crash could mean the GPU has had it.

Most likely tho what might be happening is your PSU has broken, when the system peaks it can't supply enough power and the whole PC goes kaput.

Thanks for some insight. It stopped at the moment. 
It just kept doing it for a few times.
Yeh, ok.. I have a cheap psu.. so who knows. It is 800w tho. More than enough.

CHeap ones degrade over time and even the smallest spike can reboot your system,
