PC reboots when playing games

[legendarypaul55]

My PC recently started to reboot itself when playing games. I usually play with a stream on, on my second monitor which resulted to those reboots. The thing is even without watching streams while playing reboots my PC. I thought that it could be my CPU or GPU overheating. I installed a GPU stress test to see if it's going to crash, it did so I downloaded MSI afterburner to configure my fan speeds. I set my fan speeds to cool it down when it gets to higher tempatures. It worked for a while my temperatures were fine, GPU hovering around 60 °C to 70 °C and CPU sitting around 60 °C but the reboots came back and now I am clueless. The only thing that explains it, is a faulty PSU but I am not sure if that's the case. Nothing is overclocked. Installed new drivers. Any advice helps.

My specs:
MSI GTX 970
i5-4690K
16 GB 1886 RAM
Corsair VS550, 550W

Being that it's a VS550 , it could be the PSU , it's a series at the very bottom of Corsair's lineups.

I see do you recommend any decent PSUs, I am thinking about getting this one https://www.amazon.com/Seasonic-S12II-620-SS-620GB-Capacitor/dp/B003BIEOCI/ref=sr_1_4?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1539197544&sr=1-4&keywords=seasonic+power+supply
and can I use the old cables in the corsair and plug it into a new one? It's just I am not trusting myself with changing it and I have decent cable management right now. Thanks for the quick reply.

The Seasonic is decent it's just an older platform.

Yeah they don't seem to sell the EVGA G2 anymore here. I found a SEASONIC Focus Plus Gold 550W, is that newer or is the one I originally wanted to buy a better option for the price.
