Game restarting the PC

The game runs smoothly in 120fps on my PC but it was literally rebooting my PC after every 10-15 minutes of gameplay. I updated my graphic card driver but nothing changed. I tried later and this time it was like 2 minutes of gameplay before my PC started rebooting again. I verified the game filles nothing. I set limit to 60fps thinking perhaps it pushed my hardware too much and again nothing. I again uploaded my graphic card just 5 minutes ago but this time it reboots my PC before even the main menu. It just gets worse and worse and the interesting thing is I played and finished this game 2 years ago from gamepass in this very computer. I bought from Steam to be able to play the DLC when it comes out and that's what happened..

This issue isn't happening in any other game and my temperatures are pretty normal. My spec:
Ryzen 5 5600
Asus tuf b450 plus gaming
16x2 3200MHz Ram
Ryzen 5700XT Gaming X

If it's not a temperature issue, it may be a PSU issue. Back when I got a 3090 Ti, I was playing a game that didn't really push the GPU, so everything was a fine for some months. But when I played a more demanding game, my PC would turn off after some time playing. It turned out, my PSU was having trouble handling my GPU, even though it supposedly had enough specs for the 3090 TI. The GPU power cable ended burning in the PSU socket. Luckily, nothing happened with the GPU, but I had to buy another PSU.

EDIT:

In fact, the more demanding game I started playing at the time was Lies of P.

That actually could be it. I upgraded my hardware over the years but my PSU remained the same which is 600W with a mediocre brand. I could also check my cables and clean the inside of the case. Thanks for the info I never thought of this. I will replace my PSU if none of these will work.

I solved it! I don't how but I cleaned the inside of my case, replaced thermal paste on both CPU and GPU, and put the cables back tightly. I'm now playing the game 120FPS with no problem at all (Accounts of 2 hours of gameplay session). If you have this problem I recommend you do the same since it could be a problem with loosened cables or smth like that.

I have the same issue,
Ryzen 9 5900x
RTX 3070 Ti
32 GB ram...
850W PSU...
So far i has some success in reverting some GPU updates since nvida drivers are now a mess, game is still restarting the whole PC tho... I get maybe 30-40 mins of playtime before the crash. I have tried to reach out to devs... but as expected i got general reply... update your drivers, bios.. which did not help ofc. I doubt it is a PSU issue since i this does not happen with more demanding games.
