The PC does power off when playing on Windows. Sometimes right away, sometimes a few minutes or hours later.
Unless the heatsink is entirely disconnected it shouldn't power off instantly. Something is very wrong with your machine and I don't think it's the over heating protection. I'd remove the heatsink and replace the thermal paste and make sure it's seated fully when you reinstall it.
