    Crashing While gaming (multiple games)


    As title, sometimes the program just closes, but I've been getting more and more BSOD. Could be fine for a few days or BSOD multiple times in a day. Only seems to happen while running games. I ran the windows memory diagnostic with no issues, and tried reseating my ram and GPU.

    Windows 10 Pro Version 20H2 (OS build 19042.1586)


    EDIT: forgot to mention I have also run sfc scannow, as well as Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth,
    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth, and
    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    Hi CanadianLynx,

    Have you tried turning off XMP/DOCP to see if the crashes stop in that configuration?

    I would say that your PSU is going to be retired soon and not supplying enough juice to your system since
    the problem only happen while gaming and not during testing and basic usage.

    PSU was the culprit. Thanks for the help!
