whenever I play a game my computer goes into power save mode within 20 minutes. I set my power options to always on & never off. i'm using the latest drivers. my computer meets the recommended requirements for all of my games. so, why does this happen, and how can I fix it?

my specs:
Win7 Home 64-bit
Intel i7-3820@3.6GHz
16GB RAM
1TB WD HDD
Sound Blaster Recon 3D (champ. ed.)
NVidia GeForce GTX 660Ti 2048MB
 
go to start, get"change power-saver settings" change it from balance/powersaver, and hit change plan settings. edit from there, if that doesnt work hit "change advanced power settings" and click dropdown bar, and hit high performance, you shouldn't have that problem again. Hope that was helpful.
