My computer crashes a lot.

[Baalaii]

My computer has been crashing randomly for months and I’ve tried a lot of things to try and fix it. The computer, somewhat randomly, will turn off and turn back on shortly after. This happens most frequently when gaming, but inconsistently at that. I have rarely ever had any problems running GTA V with several graphics enhancing mods installed, but when I play a game which theoretically should not be as intense such as Rimworld, I get much much more frequent crashing. Rimworld particularly exacerbates the problem, crashing the PC several times in a single night.
I’ve eliminated overheating as a possible cause. My computer, while it does occasionally get hot, does not seem to ever crash because of the heat.
I’m thinking it could be a memory issue, since Rimworld may be more heavy on memory than a game like GTA, but I don’t know I would diagnose or fix this problem. I’ve run a RAM testing program before and it didn’t come up with any errors. I also don’t want to go the nuclear option and just go buy entirely new RAM sticks without knowing for sure if it’s RAM that is causing the problem.
Any advice, help, etc greatly appreciated. Thank you.

It might help the guys and gals who troubleshoot these problems if you could supply some information about you computer hardware.
Nothing in either of these will give any personnel details
[HEADING=3]Can you Download and run and then post. Speccy - Free Download

In the Publish Snapshot dialog box, click Yes to enable Speccy to proceed.

Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot dialog box. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.

The last part of each URL is randomized, so only people you provide with the URL will be able to find your profile.

Could you also include the power supply specs E.g Cooler Master 850W Gold V2 NOT E.g 850w

Download MiniToolBox and save the file to the Desktop.

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

Click on Go.

Post the resulting log in your next reply for us as an attachment

Or you can start Windows Event Viewer and check “windows logs > System > Errors”
