In my experience i learnt this in eth mining. Eth mining crashes usually at dag switching time. Gpus are well overclocked and when dag switch happens it crashes most time. It happens in Nicehash crap all the time because when you mine there it can switch dag 10-20 times for aday,in nicecrap i saw this behavior over and over again. In fact eth dag changes like 3-4 days. If you are sure that gpu OC is ok then add slow dag creation it will help most crashes.
If your rig just turns off it means weak psu.
If 1 card crashes or dissapears or dont take oc then it means riser.

Issues like this are the most difficult to solve. I had these problems in the past. Where it kept crashing every fews hours, and then stopped while doing nothing. Other times it was something wrong with the risers, PSU, GPU undervolted too much or overclocked too high, etc.
If you got more than 1 rig, switch around your PSU and see if it goes away. If it doesn't then swap your risers. If it doesn't then its going to be a pain to find out why it happens. Sometimes it happens for no reason and goes away. However my bet is on the risers or the PSU, most likely. Or you might be lucky and it'll stop crashing all of a sudden.

My computer power off using nicehash.. that stuff is overclocked too strong. Its like 5 mins and crashes. Gotta set your computer the right setting.
I've been like three times now that my rig will reboot itself after four hours of mining, I've checked the temp and it never exceed 56°C and also I've changed my ram stick too, what other thing to look out for?
Basically zero info so all answers to. you are merely a guess.
A) what is your psu
B) how many what do you pull at the wall? you need a k-watt meter.
If you mine and don't have a kwatt meter you are mining blindfolded.
So if you have a 1000 watt ATX psu and you pull 950 watts at the wall you are overtaxing the psu
but if you have a 1000 watt server psu and you pull 950 watts at the wall you are okay.
Next set of guesses.
56°C I guess that is the highest temp of any one gpu. It is likely to be good.
speaking of your gpu's do you have 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 don't know
also maybe you are mining with your cpu xmr-monero and the temp is that of your cpu.
So
how about
how many gpus ?
the psu make and model ?
what coin you are mining ?
the motherboard ?
watts at the wall using a kwatt meter ?
What software do you use?
what are the clocks you use?
Your rig is simply crashing. share your all system and bat file. What kind of help you expect no information.
How does your PC behaves when it's powering on after the reboot? If you notice a long duration in reboot then updates is been forced on your PC, mind checking that out and find a way to deactivate windows update
If you've been mining for days or weeks with same configuration you have and there is no reboots then remove the GPUs and look into then closely, if you notice any watery effects then that's the problem, clean those off and dry the GPU

first give us your system config. Without any information about your system, what os, what miner, what oc and so on, how should we help? I have no glass sphere sorry

Power supply might be the problem, or the motherboard/CPU/RAM is having a problem. Many people forget that RAM can go bad in a computer, but also, power supplies can degrade over time.
