if it reboots, it very well could be your motherboard that is failing you.

Then it has to be the power supply failing.

im sure its your PSU, whats the temperature environment , your pc might be overheating because of the hot weather..

Damn this stupid weather! My laptop died because of the high temperature :( You would be lucky if it's just a power supply problem. A power supply shouldn't cost you more than 20$ to change it.

Unplug all cables from your PC especially the power cable and wait about 5 minutes, then plug them back and  and power-on again, report back here if you can.
Also is there a lit green LED on the motherboard when you power up ?
