hey guys i´ve been having some problems w/my new pc and i'd tried a lot of things but nothing seems to work.

The thing is that my pc restarsts when i'm playing games (cs:go, l4d) and it is annoying as fuck. sometimes my screen goes all blue and it says that the system crashed for some problem or something like that.

I tried with a couple of things: more refrigeration, install new drivers, memtest, chkdsk, furmark.

Now i believe that it's the PSU but i want to know what's your opinion guys.

xfx HD 7850 1gb core edition

sentey 650w ERP650-PS

Intel core i5-4440 LGA 1150

western digital caviar blues 1tb

RAM 4GB Ddr3 1333Mhz Kingston (x2)
 
Solution
Download Prime95, and stress test it. If it crashes, your PSU is mostlikely at fault. But, also monitor CPU and GPU temps while stress testing. If the CPU/GPU begin to go over 85ish, you may have a thermal problem.
