Kernel event 41 crashes, but only when playing CoD Modern Warfare (2019)
I've tried updating my drivers and setting all the settings to the lowest they can be, still crashing. This power supply has never given me any issues in absolutely any other game, and this has only been happening since November (got the game in October.) Any ideas on a fix?

Specs: i5-6400 cpu
gtx 1070 gpu
Acer Aspire TC-710 motherboard
16gb DDR3 ram
600W power supply

Clean install Win10 64bit 1909.
Make fresh usb flash drive using MS media creation tool so it will be the latest build and not something older.

Pretty good article on microsoft site[docs.microsoft.com]
In short the event itself just means that os was rebooted without shutting down.
Might be BSOD, or might be hardware issue leading to shutdown (PSU issues, or something overheating).

Reinstalling windows right away is terrible idea as it will delete all the logs and if it does not help troubleshooting might be harder.

Just look in Event Viewer.
Note the time stamps.
Try to reproduce the situation and then check Event Viewer it may have multiple logs right around the same time as the BSoD or reboot. You probably have auto restart still enabled

Thing is, there's nothing i've tracked it to that is specifically causing the crash. Sometimes i'll be in the lobby/party screen then the second i hit search for game, it crashes. Other times i'll be playing my 5th match in a row and suddenly in the middle it crashes. So i dont know how to replicate the situation

May be the best option, incorrect shut downs from whatever cause can cause corruption in files the OS needs and it can be time consuming to track the culprit down. If the issue is only related to that one game then maybe thats where the corruption is, reinstall the game.

reinstall the game then if it doesnt work still, then try a clean reinstall of windows?

Its my two cents, generally if an application causes trouble then a reinstall of that application will usually correct it, if it doesnt then the OS reinstall may correct the issues but there are no guarantees it will, software will not fix a hardware issue if thats what it turns out to be.

Then it's more likely to be an issue with ram, drives, psu...

yeah im thinking faulty power supply. Unfortunate considering this is the fourth time I'll have had to replace the one in my pc in the timespan of 4 years

Just had this start happening with me. After no hardware changes for around 8 months. ONLY happens with Black Ops 6... anyone else seeing this?

All parts will degrade over time. Especially the Power Supply
