Hello. So whenever I start my pc and go to watch a Youtube video, my computer crashes down instantly. This happens when I'm playing some video games. My CPU was overheating, so I updated my drivers, changed the thermal paste and CPU Cooler. Now my CPU isn't overheating but I'm still getting this PC shut down problem. I would be really happy if someone could help me with this problem.

When HWInfo first loads, check the box that says Sensors Only then click the CPU [#0] down arrow and it will show you all temps.
It will also show you the voltages as well

CPU temps and wattage looks good.
There is a way to get to the bottom of the failure through stress testing. There is CPU stress testing and GPU stress testing.
Does it shut off when it's idling?

It shuts down when I'm using my computer a lot. it happens when I'm playing and speaking on a discord call at the same time, or when I'm watching videos
Let's try doing a stress test on your CPU first.
Go ahead and download Cinebench from the Microsoft Store here and run it. If it completes successfully, please post the results. If it crashes, it means the problem lies with the CPU/board/PSU.

I've reinstalled windows, because it might be a virus, I'm gonna check it after I install all these programs and tell you guys
can I suggest that now you have re-installed Windows, you only install one thing at a time, then test if the issue re-appears.
if not, install the next thing and test again.
