My new computer has been working fine until recently it began to just shut off. It will run normally, not too loud or slow, but then it will just shut off with no warning or error message or anything. I tried sending back the psu because I tohught that was the problem but i got a brand new one and it still does it. Any ideas on what the problem could be and how I could fix?

Either powersupply or maybe a heat issue. does it just go away after playing a game?

I guarantee you 100% its an overheating issue...i researched it and talked to experts...a random no memory dump no cache dump shut down is a heat issue
basicly the computer sees that the proc is about to melt so it says "oh snap" then shuts off to save itself.
get a new heatsink/CPU fan and itll help
