I bought this entire PC in around October 2017 and everything was running smoothly until recently everything graphic intensive just keep freezing and then crashing (Windows doesn't crash, though. Nothing ever crashes, just them video games). Here are my specs:
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 1600
RAM: 16Gb DDR4 (G.Skill)
Graphic Card: Geforce GTX 1060 6Gb
A 650W PSU I totally forgot the model for
B350 Tomahawk (MS-7A34) Motherboard if that helps
Games I've tested: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition, The Witcher 3, Grand Theft Auto V, Fallout 4 (All on high settings and crash after around 30 minutes)
I've monitored temperature during gameplay using MSI Afterburner, both the CPU and GPU were both in around 50 to 65 celcius during the crash (which I supposed to be normal)
Things I've tried doing:
Oh, and no, I didn't overclock anything.

Things I've tried doing:
- Reinstalled my graphic card driver using DDU, even reverted back to an older driver from last year
- CHKDSK
- Reinstalled Windows and resetting the entire PC
- Cleaned registry using CCleaner
- Benchmarked using Furmark for about half an hour (no crash)
- Benchmarked using Unigine Superposition on 1080p Extreme settings (Game Mode) for about half an hour (crashed, Benchmark mode didn't crash since it only lasted about 5 minutes)
- Tested low graphic games (Unturned, PAYDAY, Grand Theft Auto Vice City, Minecraft) (no crash)
- No memory dump was generated after the crash
- Event Viewer generated exception code 0xc0000005 for GTA V, The Witcher 3 and the Unigine Benchmark, and 0xc0000409 for Skyrim
- I've tried removing the RAM and putting it back in
- Tried running Windows Memory Diagnostic tool to test the RAM (No problem was found)
