New PC build restarting when loading/playing games
Hello everyone! I recently built my first PC ever with the latest gen hardware, which I camped outside of micro center for. My new PC build went fairly smoothly aside from a few hiccups figuring everything out and updating bios/windows install. Everything works perfectly now, except when I attempt to run a game and my PC will restart itself. It usually happens before I even get into the game itself. If I do get a little time to play before the restart, which is rare, it probably hasn't been longer than 15 minutes before restarting the PC. My temperatures seem pretty good so I don't believe anything is overheating. I have ran some stress tests but so far only loading a game like Apex or For Honor seem to make the PC restart itself. I've tried uninstalling NVIDIA drivers and reinstalling. I've tried resetting to default bios and reinstalling the games. Both games are thru steam but I doubt steam is at fault. The only abnormal thing I saw in the benchmarks i did was in HWmonitor something called "TMPIN4" under "Temperatures" which was at 80C but the other 2-8 "TMPIN" were around 20-30C.
MY BUILD:
CPU: ryzen 5950x {corsair H150i RGB Pro XT AIO cooler}

GPU: Gigabyte 3070 8GB OC

These are the two messages I get in event viewer,
"The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly."
&
"A fatal hardware error has occurred.
