Problem:
Since I've had this computer (october 2019), it hasn't stopped giving BSOD (MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION and CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT) at any time: playing games, using the web browser, or even with nothing open. In Linux the same thing happens playing, only that it freezes and restarts

PC Specs:
Intel Core I5-9400F
MSI Z370-A Pro
Geforce GTX1660Ti ASUS Dual
RAM Kingstone 2x8GB 2666MHz
SSD 240GB WD Green
HDD 1TB Seagate Barracuda
PSU 550w 80+ Sentey

I tried to:
  1. Updating BIOS
  2. Using another disk
  3. Using Linux and Windows
  4. Doing a clean installation
  5. Updating drivers
  6. Adding fans on the back case

BSOD Logs:

Have you tried running memtest86?
 
It’s too hard to read that photo image but if you got any more than zero errors then that means the memory is bad and you have to let it run for four full passes


The fact that this happens in Linux and windows makes me believe this is a hardware issue and you should RMA the unit

Sorry for the poor quality, it was 3AM and I didn't check it right

Here I upload it with better quality:
 
I agree about the comment above with the PSU possibly being faulty so you might want to check that out

Well, I installed WhoCrashed to have more information about what was wrong, and now in addition to the ntoskrnl.exe, there is intelppm.sys and win32kfull.sys

Always a different .sys, I've already tried disabling Intel SpeedStep and C-States, plus changing the Intelppm to 4 ..

In cmd as admin in the following order....

Sfc /scannow

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

How are you installing windows.... It could be as simple as a currupted install plateform. Which in turn is just installing a completely currupted copy of windows on your system

I have installed it multiple times from USB, I tried switching version or asking someone else to try to install it and it remains the same so I guess it is a processor issue
