I'm not sure what's going on with my PC. It keeps crashing whenever I run heavy tasks like gaming or video editing. I ran a stress test on the RAM and it looks fine. I also replaced the power supply unit, but the issue persists. The event logs display the same errors after the PSU change (attached). It's been happening for about two weeks now. Here are my specs: GPU - Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti, CPU - i7 9700K, RAM - GSKill Trident Z RGB 2x8 DDR4, PSU - Vita GM 850W Gold (previously Coolermaster 850W), Motherboard - Z390 AORUS PRO WIFI.

SSD or HDD choice and RAM rates are clear. Overclocking status is also confirmed.

SSD models: Samsung 860 EVO 500GB and Samsung 970 Evo Plus 250GB. I’m using the XMP profile at 3200 MHz for RAM speed. My PC has been overclocked.

It doesn’t seem reliable. Consider using auto RAM speeds (turn off XMP, set RAM to auto, adjust voltage etc.) and disable overclock before retesting. Also look for SSD firmware updates.

Run CPU tests using Prime95 with Small FFTs for an hour. Perform RAM checks with Memtest86 for three hours. Let me know if any issues arise during testing. Download links: Prime95 – https://www.mersenne.org/download/, Memtest86 – https://www.memtest86.com/download.htm
