Random Reboot

This is going to be difficult to explain, but I have a custom Linux workstation PC that's dual booting Windows and Arch Linux. Recently, I've had the system start randomly hard rebooting.
I can't seem to isolate the cause. I'm not sure if it's software or hardware, although I believe it does not happen in Windows 10, so I'm leaning towards software. It's really irritating to have it do that
while I'm trying to code.

System Specs
Intel i7-6700K
RAM: 32GB
Graphics: Nvidia Quadro M4000 with proprietary nvidia drivers

I thought it might be temperature related, so I cleaned out the case, but the temp never got near critical as far as I know.
I checked journalctl, and all it says is --Reboot--

Today it shut off when nobody was home. Other than these reboots, everything works great, from vmware to steam to google chrome.
Anyone know any additional logs or debugging steps I can take?

Re: Random Reboot

How recently? Look in the pacman log and see if there is any correlation from when you remember the issue starting. It might be worth downgrading the kernel, or perhaps linux-firmware or driver packages, to see if the issue continues on an older version.
