Hello my system been very slow lately, but its not always, it can be fine and then next minute it's not.
and can take forever to open anything. Sometimes i get a BSOD but very very rarely maybe once or twice a week, I was trying to figure it out myself:
Tried a different gpu ,
Tried taking one ram stick out.
Tried with both RAM sticks, same thing,
my temps are fine while gaming its around 65-70 for both cpu and gpu. My specs are -
Ryzen 5 5600G
Rtx 2060
Gigabyte B550m aorus elite
Corssair Vengeance 2x8GB @ 3200mhz
500GB SSD
Evga 550Plus Bronze PSU

The suggested system power for your GPU is 500 watts. I previously used EVGA without issues, but 80+ Bronze requires a 20% increase. Therefore, you should have bought a 600-watt PSU. A 550-watt unit might work if the rest of the computer meets its power demands. However, this leaves limited capacity for future upgrades.

This refers to an efficiency rating, not the power output of the device.

This indicates that the PSU will deliver a minimum of 80% efficiency when operating under load

I shared a guide to clarify the 80+ rule.
A 550w 80+ Bronze unit should output more than 410 watts when fully loaded.
Considering aging effects, it seems your PC might be struggling.
You can easily test this by disconnecting some components and checking if the issue resolves.

Do you believe I require a more efficient power unit?

Minidump files can appear due to late program startup on your device. This could be typical if you're working with an HDD, which may combine with an SSD.
