I've noticed a problem where my PC briefly freezes during gameplay and then restarts. I'm seeking guidance on how to fix this since I can't easily reproduce the issue. I've already tested my GPU and CPU, updated drivers, replaced RAM after a driver update, and checked the PSU, but it still doesn't work. My motherboard hasn't been inspected yet. I want to know if there are other steps I should take, especially since my PSU is quite old.

Navigate to the Windows search bar, input "event viewer," and open the application. Review the error codes displayed; they are often unclear but can be looked up online for possible fixes. The "HWinfo64" tool is recommended for checking system details such as CPU, GPU temperatures, usage stats, and warnings about throttling or overheating. Upon launching, use the sensor panel to view readings presented as minimum, maximum, and average values.
