    System starts to reboot as soon as any DirectX 11 or 12 games played


    System spec...

    Asus B85M-G motherboard (4th gen i7)
    Intel i7-4770k
    16GB DDR3 (2 x 8GB)
    Nvidia GTX 1660 ti
    Crucial 240GB SSD
    Seagate 1TB HD
    750watts PSU with 6+ 2pins PCIe
    Windows 10 Pro with latest updates
    Latest Nvidia driver and DirectX 12 installed
    Temperature of CPU and GPU are operating within acceptable limit

    Noticed the issue when playing Call of Duty: MW where the cutscene ended and the actual game started, the computer simply shutdown and restart.

    Checked with FurMark GPU and CPU stress test, which is OpenGL based and passed with flying colours.

    As soon as I ran DirectX 11 or 12 based GPU stress test, it failed and reboot the computer.

    I have reinstalled Nvidia driver, DirectX 12 and even stopped the Nvidia background programs without any luck.

    I was running Windows 7 Pro a week ago and all games like Rainbox Six, Call of Duty: MW, Counter-Strike ran flawlessly.

    Can you guys shred a light onto this weird issue?

    Since it works fine on Win7, can you try to update your BIOS?

    Type in "dxdiag" in the search bar and see if there are any entries.
    Also have a look at Reliability History to see if that has any info.
