Hello fellow PC enthusiasts,

I've had my gaming PC for about 6 years now, constantly changing and upgrading parts through the years. My last version of my PC had the following specs;

AMD Ryzen 5 3600
XFX 5700xt 8gb
Some Gigabyte Motherboard
Corsair Vengeance Ram of 16 gb, i believe 3600
3 different SSDs totaling to 2.5 TB of storage
EVGA Silver 600wt Power Supply

It ran great, honestly. It was outdated though and for Christmas, i got a new CPU and Motherboard. My new specs at that time was;

AMD Ryzen 7 5700x
XFX 5700t 8gb
ASUS TUF Gaming A520m-Wifi
Corsair Vengeance Ram of 16 gb, i believe 3600
3 different SSDs totaling to 2.5 TB of storage
EVGA Silver 600wt Power Supply

I then started running into issues, Overheating at first, so i got an IO Water Cooler/radiator. Fixed my overheating issues. Ran good for a bit, noticed i started bottle necking so i shelled out money and got an XFX 7600xt 12gb card and got 32gb or ram at the same time. After installing those new parts, i started getting some strange crashing, not just a blue screen crash, just straight up loss of power. So i went and got a new power supply, kept getting crashes. Then one day i went to turn on my computer and it wouldn't boot. Turns out my boot drive died, still need to get stuff off of that drive but I was able to get a new 2TB ssd to replace it and installed new windows on it and forgot to update my drivers for a couple weeks, this happened near the end of April 2024. So my current PC specs are;

AMD Ryzen 7 5700x
XFX 7600xt 12gb
ASUS TUF Gaming A520m-Wifi
Corsair Vengeance 32gb
3 Different SSD's totaling to 4TB of storage
and now an 850 modular power supply

My current issue is while gaming in The Finals, one of my favorite games currently, i will randomly now get a green screen crash. Sometimes its a few minutes into playing or an hour into playing. I thought it was just this game, but a few times now my PC has randomly green screen crashed on a few different games or just after playing the games. I've preformed 3 different stress tests through the AMD software and it passed 30 minutes worth of stress tests no problem. I'm at a loss for what to do next really. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

EVGA Silver 600wt Power Supply
EVGA is the brand of the unit while 600W is the advertised wattage of the unit. Silver is the advertised 80+ efficiency rating of the unit. What is the model of the unit and how old is it?

Some Gigabyte Motherboard
You need to be specific on the board, and it's BIOS version.
