Sorry if this is in the wrong place I couldn't see a 'help' thread!

I bought a "Ultima Extreme Envy V2" Intel Core i7 4770K @ 4.4GHz Overclocked Haswell Quad Core Gaming PC almost a year ago and in the last few days it has been rebooting itself randomly usually about once a day. However today it has done it 3 times, the last 2 times the fan sounded really loud as it did it.

I have checked temps using Speedfan and all looks good. I also cleaned it out to make sure there was no dust causing it. Before this, I did a malware scan and removed any threats and also tried system restore but to no avail.

I have a 2 year warranty with it but wanted to see if there are any ideas on how to fix it myself without having to send it back.

Spec:
Case: Corsair Obsidian 650D with BitFenix fans
Power Supply: Corsair GS 600w PSU
CPU: Intel Core i7 4770K 3.40GHz @ 4.50GHz Haswell CPU
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z87-D3HP Intel Z87 (Socket 1150) DDR3
Cooler: Alpenfohn K2 Mount Doom CPU Cooler
RAM: 16GB DDR3 2133MHz Dual Channel Kit
Graphics Card: Nvidia Geforce GTX 780 3072MB
 
Could be the psu, had the same symptoms on and old i7. PSU was rated more than high enough, but its age had dropped its effectiveness.
