Oh lord hammercy.... well we can assume it's upstream somewhere then, probably saturation and bad network design that did not scale well. You'll need to take this up with your ISP, or maybe next time you see a result like this, restart your (what I assume is a) cable modem: maybe renegotiating a...

Let's create a synthetic and unrealistic load to make sure that it is actually shutting off due to power supply. Download Prime95 and run that to see if your PC crashes. Then try Furmark, and then possibly both at once to see what the issue may be if it has not shut down yet, and we can go from...

Honestly you shouldn't need more than an R7 3700X to play GTA V Online. If you want to stay on the same AM4 socket, buy an R9 3900X. I don't think the extra $40 will be an issue if you don't have to upgrade your motherboard (but check the CPU support list for your motherboard, I'm just assuming...

You could just watch the PC as it's being stress-tested and click "stop" once it gets too high. No software does that explicitly, the only prevention you have is the CPU thermal throttling itself.

Obvious suggestion: try updating all the drivers on your rig, especially for your network card.

Obvious, but try putting your RAM back to stock. DDR4 does not play nicely with speeds either lower or higher than stock as easy as DDR3 did, at least in my experience. Benchmarks can mean absolutely nothing for RAM issues. Sidenote (and another potential problem): Considering your GPU can...

Have you run Prime95 on the CPU to make sure it's still stable? Likewise, have you tried Furmark on the GPU? Or even try reinstalling your OS? It could definitely be software related.
