My computer restarts with no BOSD while playing overwatch

[bknaka]

My computer restarts like someone pulled the plug while playing overwatch. It seems like it only happens in overwatch. In the event viewer, it says kernal-power 41. I have tried re-installing overwatch and the blizzard app but it keeps restarting.
ive run memtest86 for a few hours and ive ran furmark with no issues. my cpu temps dont get over 56C and my gpu doesnt go over 67C while playing it. Help please.

components
cpu i5 6600k
cooler hyper 212 evo
ram 16 gb corsair vengeance lpx ddr4 2400mhz
mobo gigabyte ga-z170n gaming 5 mini itx
ssd crucial mx300 525gb
gpu evga gtx 1070 ftw dt
case Apevia - X-QPACK3-CL MicroATX Mini Tower Case
psu zalman zm600gt

Edit! I fixed the problem. My psu has 2 12v rails and one of them was going bad. I switched to my second pair of pcie connectors and there have been no restarts at all. Even though the voltages were good, the other pcie connectors were giving a little dip in power just enough to restart the computer. In this case it was the psu.

what are specs of PC? What PSU do you have?

event 41 is created by windows when it finds PC wasn't restarted correctly, its a reaction. Also leads to conclusion it wasn't windows that caused restart and some hardware instead.

thank you for your response. ive updated the post with my specs

Are you overclocked and if so, remove it till we figure this out.

only review of PSU I found seems to indicate its not an obvious weakness

You might want to run hwinfo as a monitor and see what voltages behave like in game. Something is making PC restart, and it doesn't appear to be temps.

you can run this on CPU and check it out

I have nothing overclocked

There can be also an issue that your power supply is too weak and when it opens the game, the graphics go up and if power supply cannot handle it, it just restarts.

pcpartpicker has my system wattage needed at 367watts. you think there might be a problem with my 600 watts under full load?
I can run other games just fine ie playerynknown battlegrounds which is much more demanding. This just happens with overwatch.

review i read of PSU said it could run to as much as 700, so i wasn't basing my questioning on its rating and more on reality as even good PSU go bad sometimes.

plenty of examples of overwatch restarting PC but no real pattern.

This issue has been solved. I hope that this can help other people having the same problem.
