It maybe due to overheating... Your CPU has a stock heatsink I assume... Download HWMonitor and run it and see your core temperatures... Play Fallout 3 in windowed mode having the HWMonitor in the other side so that you can continuously see the temperatures while playing the game... But be sure to see the temperatures ! and if the computer shut downs what is the highest temperature gone?

EDIT: No intake fans? Your case needs air cooling and you should know that....!! This would increase inside air's temperature cause overheating that would cause system instability and finally shut down... If the case has fan mounts fix a fan there and at the rear fix an exhaust fan... !
