Question Is CPU bottleneck the cause of my system crashes ?

[SkyFM]

Hey everyone.

2 months ago I upgraded my VC and RAM. Everything was fine for about a month, no issues. Then I had the first BSOD. I checked some system files, they got repaired, all fine again. Now a week ago I had a crash again. Then another and another. I did some hardware tests for the RAM, nothing. Checked if my PSU was sufficient, it is. Then I was kinda lost and wrote the support of the webshop I always got my parts from. Showed them the crash reports in Blue Screen Viewer and they said that my CPU is probably the culprit but they can't tell me to replace/check my current one because of company policy and told me to ask in a forum.
I mean I probably should upgrade the CPU anyway but is this really the cause for all the crashes? I don't have any PC shops that can help me nearby

My specs are:
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor
MSI B450M PRO-VDH MAX Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard
G.Skill Aegis 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory (Before: 16GB (2x8192MB) HyperX Predator DDR4-3200 CL16)
MSI VENTUS 3X OC GeForce RTX 4070 12 GB Video Card (Before: KFA2 GeForce RTX 2070 Super EX)

The crashes referred to:

• dxgmms2.sys
• afd.sys
• ntoskrnl.exe
• dxgkrnl.sys

Thanks in advance

Two be quiet fans

Maybe add some more fans?

I was using a wraith on my 3600 for a while, the temperatures were ok. This is in a fractal design R4 with 5 noctua fans though and all the drive cages removed.

Don't have space for more. The 4070 takes up a lot of space. Wouldn't the GPU have any issues aswell if the general airflow was bad? The GPU is as cool as can be with around 60C

The graphics card will alter its boost clock to stay within acceptable temperatures I think. What case do you have? Maybe you should bite the bullet and install the beefier cooler. Watch some YouTube videos first maybe?

The purebase 600
I'll have to do that either way, yeah. But probably bite the even bigger bullet and hire someone for that that does it one time and properly.
Thanks for helping throughout
