Alright, I am extremely stuck right now. I have never had stability issues until I upgraded to a 7 7700x, ASUS ROG STRIX B650-A, and G-Skill 32gb DDR5 Ram for christmas. CPU stress tests give no issues and run perfectly fine, however when I am gaming, my game will consistently crash for example at some point in every game of Fortnite I load in to. About 75% of the time my game just crashes and the other 25% of the time I will straight up get a BSOD. My drivers are up-to-date and there are no cooling or power issues that I can find. There is no error log for when my game crashes but when I get the BSOD I get the critical error, The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly. (Image linked below). This is very strange to me because everything works great until I am gaming and only fail at seemingly random points within my games. Any help, tests, or questions are greatly appreciated thanks! I feel like I am to the point of just RMAing for a new one.
Thanks for your message! You're dealing with a tricky scenario after getting help. During Prime95 you noticed RAM issues, and running MemTest Expo confirmed the problem was in your RAM. It seems like this has happened before—your G-Skill RAM has been faulty in the past. Keep an eye on your system stability moving forward.
