@JamFtw - any news?

not really. super random i thought i had it fixed but than happened a bunch.
I haven’t been playing consistently enough lately to really test it.

but after switching to balanced and turning off any cpu overclocks. i still got a good spree of crashes with the same boot error.

Is this the same computer?

I will ask @phillpower2 for his advice

The thread/s have gone on for too long for me to be able to follow it tbh but if the OP wants to do the following I will take a look.

(1) Post the game involved and explain what is meant by the game crashed;

Software such as Windows can crash and when it does crash you get a BSOD and when enabled a crash dmp is generated, programs or games when they crash can on occasion close to the desktop but the computer will still be 100% functional.

Hardware failure such as a weak power supply and/or overheating are not software related and when a computer for example suddenly turns off, freezes or the screen goes black etc the behaviour should be described as the “computer shut down unexpectedly” or froze etc and not as having crashed as the latter implies a software issue as opposed to an obvious hardware issue when described properly.

Having the correct info means that helpers will not be looking for a software issue when the problem is clearly hardware related.

(2) Post the brand and model name or number of the PSU.

(3) Post a new Speccy url.

(4) Post a MTB log.

Download MiniToolBox and save the file to the Desktop.

Close the browser and run the tool, check the following options;

List last 10 Event Viewer Errors
List Installed Programs
List Devices (Only Problems)
List Users, Partitions and Memory size

Click on Go.

Post the resulting log in your next reply for us.
