My pc literally black screen crashes and restarts at random times and even sometimes when it restarts another crash follows 5 minutes later then there would be times it doesn't crash for 8 hours I need help finding the issue could this be a PSU failing? My PSU is an XFX XTR 650W 80+ Gold and it's about 4+ years old. Also it is not a temp problem nor overclock all my stuff is stock clock and temps are normal according to hwmonitor tried clean installing windows 10 home and issue still exists.
 
Solution
Usually that does not happen when an update is successfully installed.

The only update I see could have cause a shutdown is the one at 8:47pm.
That would not help explain the other shutdowns.

I would try another PSU.

You kinda see a trend where its crashing following a window definition update for window defender i don't know if that has to do with it or just a coincidence.
