How old is the PSU? Original to build, new, refurbished, used? History of heavy use for gaming or video editing?

= = = =

Use Task Manager and Resource Monitor to determine what all is using the CPU at the times the game crashes or freezes.

Use both tools but only one tool at a time. You will need to keep the tool window open and viewable while gaming in order to watch what is happening.

Also look in Resource Monitor/History and Event Viewer. Either one or both tools may be capturing some error code, warning, or informational event just prior to or at the time of the crashes or freezes.

7 year old PSU used for gaming is a likely suspect.

May be at or nearing its' designed in EOL (End of Life).

What errors etc., if any, are being captured when the PC crashes or freezes?

Increasing numbers of errors and/or varying errors is a sign of a faulty or failing PSU.

Do you have another known working PSU that can be swapped in for testing?

Remember to use only the cables that come with the test PSU.

Also: if you have not already done so be sure that all important data is backed up at least 2 x to locations away from the problem PC. Verify that the backups are recoverable and readable.
