PowerSpec G457 restarts while Gaming

I recently bought a G457 at the beginning of December, and whenever I am running a game, the computer abruptly restarts. The issue is very sporadic, and some days it works fine. I have tried to troubleshoot using different tools, and all CPU, GPU, and RAM tests come back without issues. What are my next steps to fix the computer?

    My experience with abrupt shutdowns has usually been the power supply. If you just bought it, I'd take it in and have them troubleshoot. Gaming can stress everything at the same time (depending on the game), and is probably when you would see the most power draw.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
