My hardware includes:
Processor: Ryzen 5 5600x
Graphics: Evga GeForce GTX 1080 Ti
Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix B550 Gaming
Memory: 4 x 8GB Adata XPG Gammix D10 at 3200MHz
My games frequently crash after about 5 to 20 minutes of playtime, overheating probably isn’t the cause since my CPU seldom exceeds 50% during full load and my GPU reaches around 80%. I’ve also checked the RAM using Windows built-in diagnostics. When I power on the CPU indicator on my motherboard, it flashes red once, and the DRAM light blinks orange once. I’m unsure what this means and can’t find clear information online. It doesn’t seem like a power issue either, as my PSU is rated at 1000W Gold (I don’t remember the exact value). This problem has recently started, appearing suddenly.

If possible, sharing the make and model of your PSU would be useful. Are there any overclocking activities (CPU, GPU, memory)? If yes, please stop and return to default settings. Would this affect performance?
