Ther are many possible reasons.
Starting from software bugs to hardware.

If crashing happens under heavy GPU load it could be related to increased power draw.
Those prebuilts use cheap Kolink PSUs, most of which are crap.

Maybe find a decent Hardware monitor utility, do Games these days not provided crash logs? or are there options to enable such a feature.

Do you know if your pre-built unit came overclocked?

@EsaT If it was a power issue surely it wouldn't cause an application to crash alone, but cause a power-cycle.

Not stable enough voltage can cause single component do error.
For example graphics cards can be sensitive to that with their high power draw.
And factory overclocking increases sensitivity to power quality, unless VRMs are beefed up.

Ah, well I never - learn something new everyday. I assume a power issue would cause an issue to the OS itself rather than a single component - I guess if you've had your machine for less than a week and it not stable you might be worth notifying the manufactures if troubleshooting narrows it down to a Hardware issue?
