Hey guys, As stated in the title, I built a brand new PC just a couple of weeks ago and certain games started crashing right on the desktop. They would even ask me to verify the integrity files, but when I checked them, they didn't work at all and uninstalling the game fixed nothing next thing I did was reinstall my BIOS and uninstall my GPU drivers using DDU after that it still crashes to the desktop. I also made sure there were no memory leaks or any other problems. I also tried setting the priority of the game and set it to high power usage as well as turning off vsync in nvidia control panel nothing seems to work the games I tested were warzone 2.0 which freezes then crashes to the desktop after about 5 mins of gameplay and vermintide 2 takes about an hour to randomly crash to the desktop i also tried running the game on administrator mode and changing windows compatibility which somewhat fixed it but still crashed anything helps! Much appreciated! My specs: GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3080 CPU: AMD 7 5800X 8-Core Processor MB: ASUS TUF GAMING B550 PLUS PSU: EVGA 650W GOLD RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16 GB LPX note: the only thing I didn't replace from my old pc was my ram sticks but i monitored my games and it didn't crash due to memory.

Does this power use look too high? It could be a bit low for what we have going on.

Right now, it uses around 600 Watts.

Yeah, I think you need a stronger power supply. Also, did you use the same operating system before?

Yeah, I figured it was the power supply because if it had been bad, my whole computer would have turned off instead of just freezing at startup.

Does this make your computer stop working? Have you checked if your system is updated for the best results? Is there enough memory in the right places? How hot do your processor and graphics card feel when things get busy?

I see. I'm running the newest BIOS and chipset drivers. The RAM sticks are in slots a2-b2. My CPU gets to about 36 degrees when it's cold, but usually climbs up to somewhere between 60 and 70 degrees. My GPU stays around 55-60 degrees.

Start running Memtest86 a couple of times to check if your computer is working properly.
