So today I tried to play some games but no matter what game I tried to play, the game simply crashes after a few minutes. The screen simply freezes while the sounds still play and the crashes without any error messages, returning me to desktop. I have tried multiple games and they all result the same. Ive built this pc myself about a year ago and here are the specs:

CPU: Ryzen 5 2600
GPU: MSI RX 570 4gb gaming x
RAM: Corsair vengance 2x4 gb 2666mhz
Motherboard: Asrock b450m pro4
PSU: Be quiet! system power 9 500W
SSD (main drive): Crucial BX500 240 GB CT240BX500SSD
HDD: Seagate barracuda 1TB

I have tried to update my graphics drivers, didnt work. I tried rolling back to an older diver from 2020, didnt work. I ram diagnostics, nothing. Defragged and checked the drives, nothing. The CPU nor the GPU tempratures dont go above 70. I have no idea whats causing this since I have no other problems with the computer. It was workign fine a few days back and the only thing I installed on the computer since then is literally just remote desktop. Anya nd all help is appriciated.
 
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Pertaining to reinstalling your GPU drivers, did you use DDU then reinstalled your drivers in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator?

So the PSU is a year old at this point or more? You might want to source a PSU from your friend or neighbor who owns a reliably built PSU with at least 650W of power at the entire system's disposal, and see if you can regain system's functionality.

Source of the installer for your games? Check and see what BIOS version you're on at the time of writing. Firmware on your Crucial SSD up to date?

Actually I lost my old account so I just created a new one, but Idk much about it.
Yeah I used DDU then reinstalled them as admin.

I dont have anywhere I can borrow a PSU from and I cant really buy a new one either.

I use steam mostly but even games from origin or games like minecraft crash.

I updated my bios around march and it looks like there isnt any new updates for it either.

Never updaetd the firmware on the ssd but I changed ssds like 2 months ago.
