So ive run into this issue a few times, where the computer, whilst gaming will just switch off.. no log out screen, no shutting down screen. Just Black..
Here are my fan speed while playing Counter Strike: http://imgur.com/IOSqgIk

What could the issue be? Power Supply? CPU Fan, GPU Fan? D:
 
Yeah then cpu is overheating. Clean the dust out of the case, make sure you've got good airflow. If you are running stock cooling might want to consider a new cooler. The hyper 212 evo is good for the $$ imo.

60 is the upper end for these cpu's, should not get that hot. I've got aftermarket cooler on my fx 8120 that's overclocked, with aftermarket air cooling mine gets to 40s and low 50s under full load.
 


So you think thats the only issue? The graphics card seems hot too :/
 




Yo, cleaned out the headsink and added some fans to the case that were laying about in an old box.
woohoo.
