The system frequently restarts due to a detected issue.
The system restarted due to a bug check. The issue was identified with code 0x00000050. A dump was created at C:\Windows\Minidumps\032325-5890-01.dmp. It has experienced four crashes recently. It now restarts unexpectedly without any error screen. Recently, after gaming for several hours, I tried watching something on my PC and it rebooted cleanly, but then opened Chrome which triggered a BSOD. Recently updated the AMD Adrenaline drivers for my RX 6700 XT. Other changes include moving the PC to a different room. An additional error appears after crashes: the system restarted without a proper shutdown. This might result from unresponsiveness, a crash, or power loss.
I've installed a MSI MAG A650BN PSU about a year ago, and I'm noticing something odd while gaming. My CPU hits its maximum clock speed without crashing. I've developed a routine of turning the PSU on, pressing the power button right after, and then shutting it down when I turn off the PC. Is this normal behavior or could it indicate damage?
A bugcheck is a BSOD. You might not notice it, which could point to a GPU problem, but it's still a BSOD. The code 0x50 means a page fault in an unpaged area, which isn't typical for GPU issues unless the driver is faulty. Look in C:\Windows\Minidump for any files. If you find ones, return to Windows and move the folder to Downloads (or use your desktop if needed). Compress it and send it along. Windows usually doesn’t allow file changes there, so be careful.
Unless you disable the power supply when the system is running, it shouldn't happen. It should only affect files, preventing any hardware harm.
Occasionally it occurs, I've witnessed it a few times in my workshop. Usually, I recommend trying these suggestions first based on what others have experienced. Then, check the GPU drivers and update to the latest version before the previous one, and observe if the crashes stop.
Opened Windbg and noticed the issue might be related to the GPU driver.
Yes, though I usually check the stack (STACK_TEXT). The screenshot you shared indicates the correct driver about 90% of the time. Run DDU and if it doesn’t help, the main issue is likely the GPU. You might want to test several driver versions just in case they’re problematic. Ensure all crashes point to the same cause—GPU problems usually point to DirectX instead of the driver itself. If crashes vary randomly, something else is at play.
EDIT: I didn’t notice you attached the dump files. That confirms these definitely point to the GPU driver.
