Computer reboots

I have a computer that will reboot itself only when I am playing World Of Warcraft. If I am not playing that game, it works fine. This happened when I first built the PC and when I would play the game Age Of Empire. Replacing the PSU resolved the problem. Is it really the PSU that is causing this problem?
