Hey all, I got this PC 6 months ago and recently it's started giving me problem after problem I'm not even sure where to start on troubleshooting. I'll start by listing my PC specs and then all the problems I've been having to see if you guys have an insight. I should also note that I've already done all the basic stuff such as checking drivers and reinstalling the recommended ones for all hardware.
Specs
Ryzen 5 3600X CPU
Radeon RX 590 8GB XFX Fatboy Edition GPU
Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB (2x8) 3200Mhz RAM
Adata SX6000 Pro M.2 1TB SSD
B450 Aorus Elite Motherboard
Corsair 650W VS Series VS-650 PSU
Windows 10 Home 64-Bit
Problems
Sometimes when I boot up the PC from shutdown it wont load up windows, instead will display a black screen that tells me to insert viable boot media. Boot menu and BIOS still recognise that the SSD Windows is installed on exists, but just wont load windows from it. Happens roughly every few days randomly, and fixes after several reboots.
Playing demanding games such as Assassin's Creed Odyssey/Origins and Shadow of the Tomb Raider causes CTD's very often but randomly, sometimes every 45mins-1hour, sometimes I can play 6+ hours with no crash, no pattern.
Playing demanding games sometimes causes BSOD's at around the same frequency as the CTD's listed above. BSOD stop codes are numerous with common one being MEMORY_MANAGEMENT, but I've had at least 5 other different stop codes including something about corruption, kernal power, irql something, pagefile etc...
Less demanding games also sometimes having CTD's for completely random reasons such as World of Warcraft crashing because of a critical error in the Voice Proxy exe.
Microphone sometimes resets it's volume to 0 in the Windows sound settings, though the Headphones are not affected and they are both on the same unit - a headset.
Web Browsers sometimes have the pages crash especially when watching videos with errors such as Status Access Violation.
New issue just this morning: PSU made a sound like a chainsaw revving up for about 20 seconds when I booted up the PC, hasn't repeated it since.
I have no idea where to even start with thinking about what all these issues have in common with each other and what exactly is the problem. Hopefully one of you could point me in a direction.
Cheers.
