Hi guys, good morning/afternoon/night.
I'm having problems with my computer for more than a month now and I don't know what to do. I'll try to be very precise, but English is not my first language.
First off all, when I turn my PC on, sometimes the message "New CPU installed" appears. It shows that my RAM memory is set to 2133MHz even though they are 2400MHz (XMP is enabled). After that, I don't change anything and restart my PC. It boots normally.
After some time, playing some games or even browsing the internet, my PC shuts off (randomly) and does NOT restart right away. Sometimes it takes 1 minute, sometimes it takes 5 minutes to reboot by itself. It is important to note that the power on button of my case gets "disabled" in the process, so I can't turn my PC on when I press it. Then, when my PC turns itself on, the message "New CPU installed" appears again.
That's whats happening and I can't figure what the problem is. Please, can somebody help me?
Other important notes:

Other important notes:
- I installed 32Gb of RAM (4x8Gb) some time ago. While I was trying to figure what the problem was, I noted that 2 of my memories were kind of problematic. My PC would not boot when they were installed. All of them are 2400MHz. When I removed these bad memories, my PC didn't turn off for a whole day, but after some time it started doing all of this again.
- My PSU and HDD are the oldest components of my PC (I would say it is 5 years old PSU and 6+ years old HDD);
- I have an water cooler, so I don't think overheating is the problem;
- Repeating: My PC shuts off when I play games and when I don't;
- Intel Core i7-7700K
- Asus ROG Strix B250F Gaming
- HyperX (2x8Gb) 2400MHz DDR4 (previously 4x8Gb)
- Corsair H80i V2 watercooler
- Corsair Crystal Series 460x (I might be wrong on this one)
- Corsair CX600M
- Geforce GTX 1070
