Ryzen 5 5600x 1 year of use
Rx 6650 xt a few months of use
2 cl16 3000 mhz corshair vengeance lpx ram 1 year of use
1 cl15 3000 mhz corshair vengeance lpx ram 9 months of use (this stick is older)
thermaltake smart 700 watt 1.5 years of use
mpg b550 gaming plus 8 months of use
WD blue sa510 2.5 1tb 1 year of use
Possibly the older RAM module I removed also caused automatic restarts when system failures occurred.
I was able to resolve the problem using my clipping software as well (EDIT: I removed the old RAM and it stopped again).

iv has also experienced a black screen, hearing everything but no display, along with random restarts. I purchased the rx 6650 xt because my older r9 furyx stopped working and it functioned temporarily, but now i'm facing the same problems as before.

Yeah, you shouldn't mix RAM kits. They come in pairs for a reason. Also, the Thermaltake Smart 700W PSU is a bad choice—it's a waste of power and poses a fire risk.

It's understandable to want a replacement, but consider other options first.

I would personally swap out the sticks. I’m also wondering if you’re using three sticks? That could really hurt your performance. If you need to upgrade, consider a kit with all ranks filled like this: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product...4-...2c16bbk432. Alternatively, slots 2 and 4 work fine; slots 1 and 3 won’t. For power supply, you might want the Seasonic focus model: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product...if...-ssr-750fm or this one: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product...e-...50bn-pcie5

I understand your point and agree with beyondlogic.
Fix the power supply and mixed RAM while you wait for the better one.
You can also perform some tests during this time.
Check if the issue is with a single game—search for patches if needed.
Even if you reinstall the same graphics card driver, it will be updated.
A quick test involves disconnecting your current Windows drive and installing Windows on a spare drive to see how the system and game perform.
This helps determine if the problem lies in hardware or software.
If the system remains stable with the spare drive and new OS, the issue is likely hardware-related.
On the other hand, if you encounter glitches with the new Windows version, it should be resolved.
Regardless, your mixed memory setup should work well and the power supply needs improvement.

But I have a question about whether this power supply performs well compared to the Seasonic. If not, I'll go with the Seasonic.

sonic really improves things, as they actually produce a lot of power for other makers such as corsair and more.
