Hi guys,
my Friends PC restarts itself after I run a GPU stress test (Furmark) or heavy gaming such as DayZ
Specs:
XFX TS 650W PSU
i5 6500 with Hyper 212 EVO
Zotac AMP! GTX 1070
NZXT S340 case

Tried running GPU fans at max while running stress test, Didn't work
Do you think it is the PSU or GPU?

the PC has never OCed and temps are 50*C max for CPU and GPU

Solution
Try taking the GPU out snd running the stress test with the Onboard video if that's an option for you i doubtt it's the power supply being that it is a tier 2 PSU. Then post your results on this forum
As corndog1836 said first remove the GPU and run stress test if it does not cause any problem when GPU is removed then try using different GPU if you have or borrow from friend(try using GPU having similar or higher power requirements) and do the stress test if it restarts that means the problem is caused by PSU or Mobo(most probably PSU).
 

It works using the Integrated graphics so I probably will be RMAing the GPU
