Ok so I have an absolute head scratcher of a problem I'm trying to figure out. The issue is that my games crash randomly. I tried everything from reinstalling windows to updating drivers but I will still get random crashes in my games. I've gone to a buddy of mines to to help try and diagnosis and solve my problem but when I do my PC all the sudden won't crash at all. I don't think it's temps cause my gpu never goes over the low 70's and can't be my CPU cause I don't overclock and it never cracks 50% if I don't overclock. My specs are ryzen 5 1600, ASRock ab350 gaming-itx/ac,16gbs ram,cx 650 psu, msi gaming x rx580 8gb and nzxt h700 case. Idk Im relatively new to PC built my system a year ago and it hasn't been a smooth transition so far just nothing but issues and crashes...just want to figure out why I can't enjoy my games at home but at a friend's house I can

You have the latest bios on the motherboard? I would start with updating this if not. Latest is very recent, "5.30 from 2018/12/24".

Make sure to read this first,

Update AMD AGESA to 1.0.0.6.
* Please install "AMD all in 1 with VGA driver ver:18.10.20_NHDA" or a later version before updating to this BIOS.

* If the current BIOS version is older than P3.60, please update BIOS to P3.60(Bridge BIOS) before updating this version.

* If you updated the BIOS before updating the AMD all in one driver, please refer to the Display recovery SOP to recover your system.

So I went and downloaded that bios you had mentioned and figured I'd do a fresh driver install also so after I finally finished I tested a few games to test their stability and they were fine no crashes and these were my more problematic games too but I think I back stable again but I'm gonna give it a couple days just to be sure but thank you very much! I felt so dumb for overlooking a bios update cause when I took it to my friends house I was on my motherboards website and it didn't even cross my mind lol but thanks again I'll report back if I'm still having problems

I won't hesitate if I do. I'm using g skill ram https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Cf98TW this kit in particular though it's not officially supported for my motherboard I was able to get it running at it's rated speed thru bios updates last year but yeah getting it working/running full speed did help a few things like stabilizing my overclock and better performance in games slightly, tad bit faster boot up and etc
