Can you monitor the temperatures?

You may have a heating issue What do you have for cooling and are all your fans still working?

If all the fans are working and you can't monitor the heat, try opening the side, and place a house fan blowing in on it If it doesn’t shut off, you know what the problem is Also, you can try disconnecting all unnecessary equipment (sound card, etc) and see if you have a hardware issue Lastly, if you have more than 1 RAM chip, pull 1 out and see if problem goes away To sum up, it could be heat, RAM, or hardware You already eliminated the PS Continue laboriously on.
