Basically my pc worked fine for a long time (2 years), but now when I play some really demanding games like apex, my pc crashes, turns up the fans and no screen at all. So I tried running FurMark and it passed, CPU-Z stresstest passed aswell, memtest86 on usb passed aswell. After stressing with Prime95 though, it crashes. I hardly remember but I think it all started when I used ryzen master, becase my CPU performace was kinda bad and disappointing. I used the auto overclock first and it crashed. After that I manually overclocked to 4.2 ghz and it also crashed, but not in the same way as it is crashing now. It shut off instead of going 100% on the fans and black screening. I installed OCCT to make some more tests and every test passed except the Linpack Cpu Test and the Cpu Test itself, both result in WHEA errors and if I dont turn off the tests, the system goes down as described. System specs: R5 2600x GTX 1070 strix Crucial Ballistix 3200 mhz DDR4 (XMP Enabled) B450 PRO MAX M.2 (newest BIOS) Crucial NVME 240 gb 1tb HHD 240 WD Green SSD Windows 11 64 bit (Sfc scannow says ok) 450w Corsair The event log says, that its a kernel-Power 41 issue, altough I highly doubt the power supply fails, maybe the power cables are the issue.... I would be very thankful for any help!

Try optimizing your system settings and updating drivers. If issues persist, consider upgrading your hardware or seeking professional assistance.

Turn off XMP or apply a different profile. A stable 3200 at Zen+ is very difficult to achieve.

Resolved the issue, CPU operated at 4.05 GHz at 1.280V. Once adjusted to 1.4V and 3.9 GHz, everything functioned smoothly during testing. Appreciate your assistance!
