Hi!

I am seeking help with my computer that is a bit old, recently it keeps shutting off randomly but I notice doing certain things would cause it, at first it would be playing Valorant (Video Game), every time I play the game it would shut off during the middle of the game so I changed everything from high to low in the game's graphic settings but it did not prevent it, though I never had a problem a couple months ago, now it is consistently shutting off, it has gotten worse, next it started shutting off while I watch streamed live videos and now even long Youtube videos would trigger it

I am hoping to pin-point the problem and solve it, but I do not know where to begin, any advice would be appreciated!
