CPU: Intel Core i7-4770
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1660-Ti
SSD: Crucial MX500 1TB
HDD: WD Blue 4TB (2015)
RAM: HyperX Fury DDR3 1600 C10 2x8GB
MBD: Dell XPS 8700
My PC started as a prebuilt Dell XPS 8700 in Late 2013/early 2014
Since then I'd upgraded the RAM and GPU in late 2016
Then, about 5 months ago I got a new GPU, PSU, RAM, and switched from HDD to SSD
After I switched to the SSD and New RAM, my pc started to shut off now and then, I thought it was a PSU issue so I got a new PSU (Corsair VS650). And I decided at the same time to get a new GPU.
Since quarantine I've been using my PC more often, and I feel the problem is getting worse.
I ran the Memtest86 tests, and there were no issues, I changed some power settings (processor Power Settings in adcanced power options) from max processor state from 100% down to 95%
but in the past 2-3 hours my PC has restarted itself twice.
What used to happen was the screens would go black, I could still hear the fans whirring, and the lights inside were fine. It did nothing no matter how long I left it, so I had to restart it myself.
But today, it's been restarting itself automatically.
I ran a benchmark around 5 days ago, which gave this result
UserBenchmarks: Game 72%, Desk 80%, Work 62%
CPU: Intel Core i7-4770 - 75.3%
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1660-Ti - 75%
SSD: Crucial MX500 1TB - 103.2%
HDD: WD Blue 4TB (2015) - 82%
RAM: HyperX Fury DDR3 1600 C10 2x8GB - 57.8%
MBD: Dell XPS 8700

MBD: Dell XPS 8700
and this one right as I'm posting this
UserBenchmarks: Game 68%, Desk 71%, Work 56%
CPU: Intel Core i7-4770 - 69.3%
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1660-Ti - 72.9%

MBD: Dell XPS 8700
I Have no idea what's going on, why would my PC's performance drop this much.
Please help me
