Windows 10: PC Shutting down while playing games

My PC will randomly start shutting down when I'm playing most games Rocket League, Rust, Payday3, Cult of the Lamb. I tried troubleshooting with EventViewer to see any problems but the only reports I get are DistributedCOM events which seemingly don't mean anything. I'm thinking it's a PSU issue because I see a 'Kernal-Power' event from a previous shutdown https://imgur.com/a/rs74kwE, but the most recent didn't report anything that looked significant https://imgur.com/a/3e35R5C. My CPU reaches ~120F max playing games and my GPU ~105F, which I thought could possibly be the problem al

PC shuts down playing games

Thanks for the reply. Solved

It wouldn't play any games at all, just shut down my PC each time. I checked the CPU temp on a high demanding game, highest temp was 136 f which is ok.

Solved the problem, my PC was plugged into a backup power supply unit so on a hunch I plugged it into a separate outlet directly. Ericka, most have had a power drop from the UPS unit to my PS which caused it to shut down on high demand, so I'll have to replace
it. Lucky because I'd still be trying to fix it
