I think I'm drawing too much power.

A few days ago I assigned two programs to use more power (or processor), I forget. Yet, I forget how I did it.

Now, since that change, my PC shuts down while playing my game (which I assigned). I think after changing this setting, I overwhelmed my power supply.

Anyone happen to know where I assigned my apps to use more power? I can't find the setting anywhere!!!

Thank you Colif. I did everything you suggested and it still happened. I think I am overheating my system. Found out Firefox was killing my resources and I think overheating my system. Changed browsers and no crashes.

Thank you for your help.

You were right. I had a bad ram stick it looks like. Put in two other sticks from old system instead of current and seems to have fixed. Also may explain the crashes when ram usage increased.
