Hi, I've had this PC for a while now and I've recently just started having problems when playing on high settings on graphic intensive games such as Apex Legends, PUBG (least of problems) and Call of Duty Warzone, it usually occurs while falling, sometimes before I can even jump out of the plane, and if I'm lucky I'll get to play a few minutes before randomly crashing, the game just instantly shuts down and returns me to windows desktop screen (same for all games) I'll list my PC specs below
MSI GTX 1080 TI
I7 7700K 4.2Ghz
Micron M600 SATA M.2 512GB
WD Blue 2TB
G.SKILL Aegis DDR4 3000 C16 2x8GB
Asrock Z270 Gaming K6

https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/24066159 here's a benchmark I ran a while ago when problems started to occur, may or may not be useful.

Does anyone know what could cause this? please, any help/advice is much appreciated, thank you

Hi :) My PSU is 750W Powerspec, CPU temp averages around 62c, GPU 73-75c, just played a game of warzone and turned graphics settings up to high and encountered a direct x error, all of my drivers are up to date
Sorry for the late reply
Not a great unit, but theres nothing really bad about it. Voltage regulation is mediocre, but shouldnt cause this crashing.

You're sure your graphics drivers and chipset drivers are up to date? Since you encounter a directx error, you could also try uninstalling and reinstalling graphics drivers, even if they are up to date.
What are the temperatures of CPU and GPU?
What is the model of the PSU and its wattage?
