So short backstory, I built my PC about a year ago, February 2023 and it was dying a lot in an interesting manner. Freezes up for about half a minute and then black screen hard reset.. It was rare and I didn't think much of it. About 2 months later I upgraded to a more recent motherboard and CPU along with RAM. That board died 1 week after due to my game locking up the PC and causing a hard reset. No idea how it died though. Maybe a short? I am not experienced in PCs really!
I took it to service where we found out the CPU and RAM survived somehow. The board was toasted so they got me a new board and case that fit the board (Micro-ATX). I went to play some games and benchmarks and it seems something fixed it? But then after 1 week it happened. At this time my cheap SSD was dying because I bought it used so I figured that was the issue. When I upgraded to a new high quality M.2 drive nothing changed, but this time the crash happened with a short view of the BSOD. I have a video below of what that looks like, starting from the boot of the game.
It is slowly becoming worse overtime so I am assuming the only thing that I haven't switched out, the PSU is dying but I have wasted so much money on the PC I am starting to get pissed.
