How are the thermals on your system during gaming for both the CPU and GPU?

@richiestang_78 My cpu temps are at 30 C low and 57 C stays around 40ish
The GPU is 50c to 75c but stays around 71c during games

What happens when it crashes? Does it just hard lock the game? Does the system just completely shut down? Or is the game itself just crashing? (Sorry for a million questions)

Alright, have you updated all your drivers? If you have the up to date drivers, I would try to DDU the drivers just to make sure they are all good. I also know that your GPU that you have does have a tenancy too run a bit hot and it throttles around 80degC. So if it is getting up to 75degC you would be cutting it pretty close. Especially if you are in a fast pace situation in a game where there is lots to be rendered in. It might be worth going into your GPU settings and adjusting the fan curve to something a little more aggressive. Hopefully that helps.

Also if you don't know how to DDU your drivers, I can send you a quick step by step video (it is very easy and is a fix for a lot dumb PC problems)

Even if you are not running an OC I'd suggest running something like occt for 12hrs on the system. I'd do a run through of both large and medium data sets make sure all the temps look good and that it doesn't run into errors. This will also take the video card out of the picture, so if occt crashes you'll at least know it isn't your video card. I'd also try running a few benchmarks on the system and see if anything seems to be benching below what it should be. IF something isn't running up to speed then that would be a good starting point for additional troubleshooting.
