Has it been hot where you are lately? Is your fan working?
Hardware that acts up under load is quite often thermal-related,
especially if it starts happening during summer and didn't happen before
that... ESPECIALLY the kinds of behaviours you see: the "sudden power-off"
is the normal behaviour for a CPU that trips a critial overheating point,
and the slowdown is also one normal response to overheating (CPU
throttling).
