I own a gaming PC that has shut down four times in the last four days, each time displaying a blue screen before restarting.
My hardware details:
Motherboard: ASRock A320m/ac
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 580 2048 SP 16 GB with 24.1.1 drivers
RAM: Corsair VENGEANCE LPX Black DDR4 Dual Channel, 16GBx16GB (32GB total)
Storage: PNY XLR8 Gaming M.2 SSD and Western Digital Blue 1 TB HDD
Operating System: Windows 11 Home version 23H2
I played games constantly and experienced blue screens each time.
Could my CPU, RAM, or motherboard be malfunctioning?

Welcome to the forums!
What brand and specific model of your PSU do you have?
Have you tracked CPU and GPU temperatures during gaming and when BSODs or crashes occur?
Are you adjusting CPU or RAM settings?
Do you have a 2.5" HDD? Have you assessed its storage condition? You can use CrystalDiskInfo or HDSentinel to examine SMART data and check if the drives are functioning properly.
If you share the dump files (*.dmp) from the BSODs and provide links here, we might be able to review them.
For PC settings that generate small memory dump files, the correct location in Windows 11 is C:\Windows\Minidump.
