    A UPS will not fix a faulty PSU. It will only provide that little extra bit if there are very small power drops, provided the UPS is charged. A UPS will not power a computer without a working PSU.

    You never said. What are you doing at the time it shuts down?

    But it only happens in game, and your computer fires no event saying the CPU is overheating? I am almost positive your PSU is just simply not supplying enough power. A UPS will not make up for this. The UPS will only fix the problem if its faulty electrical wiring, power strip, or surge protector. It wont provide extra power for the CPU to use.

    To test that your GPU is sucking up too much power. Underclock it by like 50% just to see if your computer shuts down afterwards. If it does not. You can start raising it by small increments to find how much you can use before it powers off.

    There is probably something in your nvidia control panel that will allow you to do this. Idk.. ive been using an AMD for the last 3 years. If there isnt there are lots of 3rd party tools to do this with. Check in your nvidia control settings first. Then if they don't have something built in just google "nvidia overclocking tool".

    Here is a link to some nvidia software that should help:

    think I found a pic of the label on the side of that 600W model:

    Look familiar? Unfortunately, can't tell if that is SLI/Xfire or 80-Plus certified. So, that may very well be your problem---especially if it isn't certified. Uncertified units don't have a confirmed level of output under extreme conditions (high loads and/or high heat), and tend to degrade at a much faster rate. For instance, a certified 600 watt almost guarantees you will get 480 watts out of it under high load or a hot environment--a lesser quality may only be able to deliver ~400 under the same rigorous conditions.

    Might want to check on that with the one you found at Newegg too. If it doesn't have one of those certifications, it may start to give you problems after you've run it hard for a bout a year or so and you will need to replace it again.

    The Core Clock. You can under clock the mem clock but it usually is not the culprit if you do I would only take this down a little bit.
