    30 minutes? Any idea how hot your PC becomes? Maybe an overheating problem? Oh, and what make PSU? Had a crap one that froze the PC, so a restart with a crap PSU wouldn't surprise me, tbh.

    Yep, pc's auto shutdown when Temp reachs a certain stage. Assuming its not a dell you could Download Speedfan/Motherboard Monitor and check what your idle/load temps are. Anything over 70 is bad.

    Like the guys said it could be overheating, it also could be the PSU giving up when its put under too much pressure.
