[SOLVED] My computer always crashes while trying to play madden 2 and stream.

Hi guys this is my 1st time posting and I was wondering if I could get some help for a problem I've been having. Every time I try to stream Madden 20 my computer always crashes about 10 mins in. I have tried to fix it myself by closing tabs and even turning off my second monitor while i play but nothing seems to work. I wanted to make sure it was not a heating issue with my CPU so I took off my cooler and applied new thermal paste. It is usually running at around 72-74 degrees Fahrenheit whenever am playing and streaming at the same time. My computer sometimes crashes even while not streaming and under medium load. If anybody could help it would be greatly appreciated.

My Parts:
CPU: Ryzen 7 3700k
GPU: Zotac GTX 2070 super
Motherboard: MPG X570 Gaming Edge Wifi
Cooler: NZXT kraken M22
Power Supply: Thermaltake Gold rated 750 watt
 
Solution
1)Specs of the memory?

2)Which exact gold rated Thermaltake? https://pcpartpicker.com/products/power-supply/#m=56&A=750000000000&e=4

3)Motherboard bios and drivers are up to date?

4)What's your case?

5)And I think this may be the crux of the problem - the Msi MPG X570 Gaming Edge Wifi is notorious for it's high VRM temps:

That, combined with the fact that you're using an AIO - one of the advantages of air coolers is that, depending on the model, they directly(top-down models), or indirectly(tower models) cool the mobo's VRMs.
AIOs sacrifice this feature, meaning that part will run warmer by default, so you have to make up for that some way...

High probability that your motherboard's power throttling.
