It may or may not be the PSU. It could also be one of a number of things. When does it restart? While you're using it or during boot-up?

One of the first things you should do is to remove the RAM and reseat it firmly. If there's more than one RAM stick, try them one at a time. If that makes no difference, test it (them) with memtest86.

Other things you can check: Is the CPU fan running normally? Is the heatsink clean, not choked with dust?

I repeat - test your RAM(s) first. These things have to be done step by step. Follow my instructions in my earlier post and report the result.

Even if you're not familiar with memtest86, at least try removing and re-inserting the RAM(s). How many sticks do you use anyway - one 4GB stick, 2x2GB or 4x1GB?
