I verified that there are no updates available for both.

Yeah, looks okay. It's not about the temperature. Probably not the PSU, though it’s possible because temporary spikes can exceed steady usage. Still, a CoolerMaster 750 should handle that 3060ti, and I’d expect a crash to occur in that situation. Could be the RAM, but I’d anticipate a BSOD might come from the SSD—there’s been some controversy about that model recently. How long does it take before it crashes? Is it consistent or more likely during heavy usage? And just for fun, do you have a basic keyboard and mouse setup? The absence of any events seems odd.

maybe i wasn't in the correct section in EventViewer, it's been a while since I used this software. The crashes appear unpredictable—sometimes after 20 to 30 minutes, other times after just 5 minutes. Once it displayed a blue screen with a page fault in the nonpage area. The games are installed on separate SSDs; I also have a Samsung SATA SSD that suffers the same issue. Actually, when I opened the PC, I noticed the CPU fan wasn't installed properly and the airflow direction was incorrect. I fixed it recently, and for about 20 minutes the CPU temperature stayed below 90 at 4.2 GHz boost.

Disable xmp and observe whether crashes continue.

After some testing (I played a lot of bf2042 and spent a lot of time on cod), the issue was the fan direction on the CPU cooler. It was positioned right next to the exhaust, trying to draw air in while the exhaust pushed it out. When I flipped the fan, everything worked fine and the games didn’t crash. It seems the problem started recently, likely because it’s cold in Israel during winter—around 10°C—and the CPU stayed safe. Now summer is here with temperatures around 25–30°C, and the CPU is overheating. After flipping the fan under stress on both CPU and GPU, the temperature never went above 90°C and the game didn’t crash. In Event Viewer there were no overheating warnings, but I spent about 30 minutes checking and couldn’t find anything clear.

I've seen it before, my friend. The EV isn't very smart about temperatures. It should have raised a Critical or Error event, making those numbers jump up to at least one.

it experienced a sudden stop, with minor issues but no critical problems. It might have closed unexpectedly or the computer shut down abruptly. There was a storage error that triggered a storage run. Now I think the crashes were likely due to program failures.
