Today while i was playing RDR2 for about 15 minutes, when suddenly my PC crashed and BSOD appeared. The PC restarted but it didn't show anything, i tried unplugging and replugging it then it worked and got me into my BIOS and the system said something like automatic repair and I got into Windows. Since then, i have tried to stress test the PC and played the game for an hour and a half and nothing happened, things just went back to normal. I bought this PC like 2 years ago and this is the first time i encountered this problem. Also i have recently upgraded my GPU and RAM. Should i be concerned about this?
 
When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard?

Also i have recently upgraded my GPU and RAM.
What were you working with and what did you upgrade to ?
 
In addition to the above, please upload all dumps you find in the folder C:\Windows\Minidump to the cloud with a link to them here - be sure to make them public.
unless its changed a lot, windows doesn't auto create a minidump folder, its default is the memory.dmp file in all its multi gb wonder.

If you want a minidump, you need to set it up first

Can you follow option one on the following link - here - and then do this step below: Small memory dumps - Have Windows Create a Small Memory Dump (Minidump) on BSOD - that creates a file in c windows/minidump after the next BSOD

  1. Open Windows File Explore
  2. Navigate to C:\Windows\Minidump
  3. Copy the mini-dump files out onto your Desktop
  4. Do not use Winzip, use the built in facility in Windows
  5. Select those files on your Desktop, right click them and choose 'Send to' - Compressed (zipped) folder
  6. Upload the zip file to the Cloud (OneDrive, DropBox . . . etc.)
  7. Then post a link here to the zip file, so we can take a look for you . . .

One BSOD isn't really anything to worry about. If it happens more than once, then I would worry. Some can be user created. I have only had two oif them in over 5 years and I know I caused one of them.
