I am using Intel Core i5 7600K Cores: 4 | Threads: 4 | Base clock: 3.8GHz | Turbo: 4.2GHz | Socket: LGA 1151
I think the CPU configuration like this is okay to work and play games. But when I use it again too slowly. I just play some simple games on www freegames66 com but my computer sometimes automatically shuts down. I even use that normal text editor. I do not know the reason why, or do I need to upgrade something else?

A computer won't shut down because your CPU is too slow. It sounds like your computer has other issues.

I'd reinstall Windows first Wink
Save all your data to external drive and do a clean system install.
Make sure you have antivirus software.

I think that too.

Overheating makes the pc shut down to prevent damage.
The pc in itself is pretty decent.
