PC keep on crashing when playing video games.

[Freikorptrasher]

Using GTX 3070 8 GB & 48 GB RAM ( 16 x 2 & 8 x 2 )

12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-12400F 2.50 GHz 64 Bit Windows 11 Pro 22H2 version

Backstory, 2-3 weeks back PC keep on crashing like every 10 minutes when playing video game. It was concluded the crash is due to cloud save so i disable cloud save and pull everything out of One Drive. Everything was working fine when yesterday it started to crash again. I thought it's an isolated case but then it crash again. Oh dear it's back. I check my One Drive and confirm the file is not saved there. So what must be causing this " new " crash ?

I look at Event Viewer and notice the same below for the 4 of the "new" crash i encountered.

Can someone please help me...i have the event viewer log save if needed.

Thanks....

Crashing = blue screen?

Something that I like to do on new computers, or on old computers that are starting to show crashes, is to run memtest86+ for a while (like, over night): https://memtest.org/
Note that ANY error, even if it's just 1, is a hardware defect that cannot be ignored.

While this does not "test" graphics hardware, and focuses on RAM testing (which, btw, is what caused the latest series of crashes on my box... a RAM module that has gone bad over the years, for some reason), it's generally a test that also tests what happens if the CPU runs at 100% for an extended period of time. If the box passes the test, I know it's a reasonably decent foundation.

Other reasons for bluescreens can be bad drivers.

Note that this is very different from games crashing. If its just a game that crashes, the fault usually just lies with the game in some way or another.

Not blue screen. Just crash and restart the computer.

The memtest advise is good.

Better create thread in Hardware&Software

Was that not one helper here that mention a 12000 generation issue with intel or was it MS issue a while back, i dont recall if this was chipset driver issue or BIOS but ask Hardware&Software they might remmeber it better or other helper here know it.
