This happens every now and then, I enter any game my pc screen flickers black with some white lines audio starts glitching and it just restarts.
PC restarts I go into event viewer this is what error shows me:
A fatal hardware error has occurred.

Reported by component: Processor Core
Error Source: Machine Check Exception
Error Type: Cache Hierarchy Error
Processor APIC ID: 10

The processor APIC ID number is different sometimes 9,11,8,3

Everything in updated to latest drivers, all brand new components. This only happens when in game when I use computer casually it never does this.
When in game the fans go high pitched I don't know which one CPU or GPU but when I tab out the high pitch goes away I don't know if that could mean the component is failing or it's just coil whine.
My specs:
CPU - Ryzen 5 5600x (Cooler - Be Quiet Pure Rock Slim, BK030)
GPU - RX 6650 XT (Latest drivers 23.2.2)
RAM- VENGEANCE LPX 2x8
SSDs - M.2 WD Blue 1tb
Crucial P5 Plus 500GB M.2
PSU - EVGA 850w GQ PSU
Motherboard - B550M pro-VDH WIFI (BIOS Version 7C95v2D)

I'd double check the CPU. If you have an OC, remove it and run stock. Make sure the voltage is correct. Make sure the temps aren't to hot. Personally I don't let my CPU get above 65C. You can check the ram settings as well, but it did say processor core.
