So I have a AMD A8-6600K for my cpu, and at idle it runs anywhere from 60 - 80 degrees. And when I play video game its jumps to 90 - 115 degrees. The cooling system I have is the Cosair hydro series H60. Whenever I play PLayer's Unknown BattleGrounds, my computer will randomly shutoff.

I dont know if this may be the cause, but i recently did the things in this video...but I have undone all of them as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LG78ItS1ZM

I have already tried reapplying thermal paste, and cleaning out the fan.
Thank you for your assistance

Provided that you're not still overclocking, the overheating problem must be from your cooler. Either the fan is not spinning within the designed RPM, or maybe the cooler's pad, for some reason is not sitting evenly over your processor. Did you try to set your Bios setting to default.
