    Yes it still has 2 year+3years warranty intact. While rx 5700xt has 3 years warranty.

    Please help me decide what to do. I can not make up my mind. I was gonna buy rtx but my friend told me that amd image is much sharper and better saturated. I own rx 580 atm and don't want blurry image etc.

    Toheed got a reaction from Gegger in Critical process died bsod very frequently now   
    I replaced rams because I used to get the same issue with them. It happens in other games too but not as frequent as in fortnite. Maybe once in a day in other games. I will checkout drivers. I already cleaned malware with malwarebytes. Can hdd or ssd cause this issue? Both have 100% health but I think the ssd or hdd are doing this. I will reinstall windows too if I can't find any solution.

    Gpu is actually running fine! I have set a custom fan curve and it never exceeds 70°c at 70% fan speed(rx580 nitro+ oc to 1450mhz clock -2250mhz mem on auto voltage). Fans don't spin unless it reaches 60°C

    As people stated already: Just do it.
    Way back in the 90's it was much easier to really break something or have something not working (master/slave devices...).
    Today everything is kinda easy. Just make sure you don't rush. if you encounter an issue. google it.
     
    Just one thing I have to tell myself every damn time:
    If you have to apply thermal paste to your CPU just trust yourself that you've done it right. Don't put the cooler on and then remove it to check. Just believe in that you've done it right. Chances are pretty low that you've done it wrong.

    For a first time build the most important rule is don't rush.  Even if you do it over two days, take your time and double check all your work.  There is much better quality control about parts these days and chances of a bad stick of RAM are very low.  You don't tell us what the parts are for your build.  I hope you are doing an ATX system as there is a lot of room in the case compared to mITX.  Also, having a modular power supply makes things easier as well.  After over a dozen PC builds I always get excited when I turn the computer on for the first time and install Wndows.

    You can do it, my cat believes in you. 
     
    There's plenty of guides here and all over the internet in case you get stuck, but really a PC just goes together like a very expensive lego set, and lots of parts are designed so you can't accidentally put them in the wrong way.

    What you need to do is on a piece of paper outline the steps you are going to take.
    To know what those steps are, watch Youtube build videos. Watch several.
     
    You need to keep track of things like the amount of screws used to fit the motherboard to the case with the amount of stand-offs. 
    One stand-off out of place can spell disaster.
     
    Make sure the area is well lit and clean. 
     
    You should think about having a shower before you start to minimize having a hair or eyelash land in the wrong place(CPU socket).
     
    Make sure you have the right tools before you start.  
     
    Here is a list of what has gone wrong on my recent builds.
    One stick of ram not being recognized. Had to reseat it a few times to get it to work.
    lost a M.2 heat shield screw. Had to remove the motherboard to make sure the screw was not in a place it could do harm. I never found the screw.
     
    Good luck.

    Honestly, it is not hard to build a PC at all. You can do it yourself, I am sure.
