My computer started randomly power cycling while playing the new Star Wars battlefront 2. First time it's done this. Is my PSU on its way out? Happens randomly. No blue screen. No bios messages on reboot.
 
Possible. What PSU do you have? System specs?

Specs in sig:

Intel i7 6700k @ 4.6GHz w/ Apogee XL water block - ASUS Z170-Deluxe - Cooler Master Silent 850w PSU
EVGA GTX 980ti SC @ 1466/7806 EK-FC CSQ water block w/EK Nickel Backplate
Corsair Dominator Platinum 4x4GB DDR4 @ 3000MHz C15 with Light Bar Kit
Samsung EVO M.2 500GB SSD (OS) || 2x Seagate 7200rpm 3TB (Raid 1)
EK-XRES 140 Revo D5 PWM || Alphacool NexXxoS ST30 280mm & 360mm || Monsoon fittings || Noctua PWM Fans

PSU is Cooler Master Silent 850w PSU bought 4/22/12. Warranty expired 2 months 8 days ago.... Planned obsolescence? :/
 
first make sure its clean then you could try occt's psu test. it will show any goofy voltages and/or shutdown if the psu is bad. or swap it. that's where id start.
