The power supply is a 1500 watt, twice what this system needs. Why would that be happening?

The GPU is overclocked out of the box, but I've even tried setting it back to normal clock speeds, to no avail. It seems that once the GPU starts hitting loads of 90-100%, it just shuts down. From what I understand these percentages while gaming are normal and even considered to be good because...

Power at my home shouldn't be an issue but I will try to pin down at which FPS it can function at.

So about two months ago I built my first PC and I've had problems with gaming ever since. When gaming, I can normally get 5-60 minutes of gameplay before (even playing games like CS:GO) the PC will shut down as if someone had taken the power plug out of the wall. It doesn't restart, it just...

I have no clue what it's purpose or...
