Hi there,
4 week ago i finished building my pc, since i had several bluescreens and my games kept crashing (WoT, Trackmania, Minecraft, Metro Exodus).
Hardware:
-AMD Ryzen 5 3600x (i am also using the wraith cooler)
  • MSI GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER 6 GB GAMING X
  • MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX
-Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600
-Crucial P1 500 GB M.2-2280
-be quiet! Pure Power 11 CM 500 W
What i already did:
Diver updates
Windows updates
Checkt Windows for mistakes
Memory diagnosis
But no error was found

Has anyone a idea why it keeps crashing?

Some issue with your RAM:

DOCP enabled? RAM speed set to 3600 and Infinity-fabric-speed to 1800 (manually)?

If yes, try DRAM-voltage 1.4 and SOC-voltage 1.1.

If OK---> keep it
if NOK---> keep DOCP enabled, set DRAM speed manually to 3200 and infinity-fabric to 1600 ( manually).

if OK----> you might keep it( but looks like, that RAM sticks are not performing as intended ----> try other RAM-sticks)
if NOK----> try other RAM-sticks

Sounds like memory error. Do thorough memory test.
Start it, put in 2000, open new instance and same again, 2000. Open 6 instances. Let it run to at least 100% with all instances if no errors. Recommended to run it til 400%.
If you do get errors, your memory settings are wrong. Or they could be in the wrong slots, generally slot 2 and 4 from the CPU. Or both.

If you do run XMP, might have to lower some primary timings and/or add slightly more voltage. Like 1.35v -> 1.37v.

First, make sure you aren't overclocking anything (CPU, GPU, memory). Then, drop your memory speed in the BIOS to 2133 (default DDR4 speed).

If the system is stable at this non-OCed baseline, you can inch up the memory speeds to get closer to the rated speed. If the system isn't stable at default speeds, then there are likely Windows/BIOS issues to resolve.
