So i have had this problem for a while and have tried different things. So basically when i play a game a sudden black screen appears and the pc restarts. So i once tried to play with one stick of ram and it seemed to be working and not shutting down. I did not play that long like 3h but sometimes the pc does not restart for a good day and the next day it restarts again it might still restart after all gonna have to test it more.

Things i have tried: All stock setting, bios ubdate, reinstalled gpu drivers, new sticks of ram and reseated the gpu.

I will test a bit more today and see how it goes but if any suggestions what might be wrong let me know. Oh and one more thing, i don't know if this is important but. When the restart happens and i start up the game again the ram usage is about 1.5-2 gb lower compared to before the restart with the same programs open. Thx for any help.

Specs:

R5 3600 Cpu
Rx 5700 xt Gpu
Hyper x fury 16gb 3200mhz ram
x-570-p Mobo
corsair rm 750 gold Psu
 
Temps?

Make sure your CPU cooler is properly seated. How many sticks of ram do you have and are they in dual channel configuration?
I have 2 sticks of ram and gpu temps are max 75 cpu max 55. And yeah they are in dual channel configuration i guess since it recognizes it and works in 16gb of ram 8gb each.
