Default PC shutting down

So my PC has started rebooting at random intervals. My thoughts are that it's probably an issue with the CPU overheating so a replacement fan/heatsink may be in order. What do other people think?

Check the system log



Also you could try unticking this box



Failing that it sounds like your CPU or another piece of hardware could be overheating

Cool, didn't know about that setting. I was planning on checking the logs next time it happens anyway.
