Turns off on what particular event? Powering on or booting/loading OS? While Browsing or gaming?
Is it a Laptop or Desktop?

You might wanna unscrew some CPU casing and check for any dust forms to make sure ventilations are not blocked. Make sure to unplug power cord. When test booting, do not yet close CPU side panel to check for any overheat or fan failing. If you are not familiar with these steps, ask someone to do it for you.
