I've been having a perpetual issue with Unity games crashing my PC. This has been going on for almost a year now, starting when I got my PC. I have rebooted my computer countless times, I have factory reset my computer and redownloaded the OS from the disc, and I have reset my BIOS more than once.
The problem still persists.
Whenever I play a game that runs on the Unity engine, after a seemingly random amount of time(usually between 10-20 minutes), my computer will simply shut off, and then reboot. This is consistent for every Unity game I have tried. Examples include Rust, Phasmophobia, and Superliminal. The crashing symptoms are consistent between all three games.
My computer specs are as such:
Motherboard: B450 Gaming Plus (MS-7B86)
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor, 3600 Mhz, 6 Cores, 12 Logical Processors
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT
4 8GB sticks of DDR4 RAM (Corsair Vengeance LPX)
OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Home
Power supply: Corsair TX650M

Are you overclocking anything?
Are you sure that your CPU / GPU isn't overheating?
You could use some temperature monitoring software to check it.
When you say "simply shut off," do you mean it bypasses the windows "shutting down" or "rebooting" screen, and just instantly goes black?
You might be able to check the Windows Event Viewer to get more information.
