i turned on my rig as usual it operated on for 10 minutes then turned off by it self i tried to turn it again but after showing bios it turned off
so i don't know whats happened i didnt smell anything or hear explosion sound so i want to know is my rig ok or something wrong i tried my ssd on another pc and worked fine
 
If that PSU is 5-10 years old I'd highly recommend replacing it with a new one as it's very likely to be the problem, but it could just as easily be that 9 year old motherboard.

Are you trying to run ALL that hardware in the same machine?

If so, try removing the GTX 780, ALL of the drives except the one the OS is installed on and the single 8GB memory module (Leaving your 2 x8GB kit installed, and make SURE those two DIMMs are installed in the A2 and B2 slots, which are the second and fourth slots over to the right of the CPU socket) and see if you still have a problem with it shutting down.
