I bought a new CPU (from i3-4130 to i7-4770k) and the pc started crashing while playing games. I played CS:GO and Fortnite and after about 2 hours of playing the PC turns off and on again. I didn't have a problem on the old CPU but I did on the new CPU. I didn't have turbo boost and hyper threading available on the old cpu and I have it available on the new cpu and I have it turned on. I don't know what to do, the temperatures are fine (CPU 50°c, GPU 60°c). Please help. Thanks.

My PC:
CPU: i7 4770k
GPU: GeForce GTX 1060 3gb
RAM: 12gb (1x 8gb, 1x 4gb)

What PSU is installed: make, model, wattage, age, condition?

How many drives (SSD, HDD)?

Other devices relying on PSU power?

Look in Reliability History and Event Viewer for error codes, warnings, and even information events that correspond with the PC crashing.
