Pc randomly shuts down without warning
Recently, my PC shuts down without any warning. Sometimes its when I'm launching fortnite, other times I'm just in chrome.
The strangest part is it just started happening recently, and sometimes its stable, others it crashes, keeps crashing and then becomes stable again.
It might be my GPU, but I'm not really sure. whats going on because all my temps are stable and there's no error messages or anything when it dies, boots back up or in the system logs, just a critical error saying my pc wasn't shut down properly.
If anyone has ideas I can try, that would be a huge help!! Also if you have questions please ask! Thanks!
My specs are
AMD Fx-6300
AMD R7-260x
8gb ram
corsair CX-600
120gb ssd
1tb hdd
Update 05/11/18:
As of now, another problem showed up and I had to reinstall windows. It was fine when testing in Windows 7 before, and I have not had problems yet in windows 10. So I think it was something with my windows install that was breaking it. Thanks for all your help!

Hi @cam2363
Try running furmark to stress your GPU,
you may consider downloading 3DMark Basic Edition to test your systems.

If you have a spare power supply, consider replacing and test for some time.
btw what mainboard are you using currently?
