Critical Process and Random Crashes

[Jonathan Durbin]

I have had windows 10 for almost four years, about two years ago my computer started bsod-ing with critical process died after about forty-sixty minutes regardless of use. When it started I had pro windows ten, Asus m5a97 r2.0, amd fx 8320, gtx 750ti, 128 ssd and 512 hdd, 8gb ddr 3, and air cooled. Since than I have went back and forth with insiders program, and standard windows ten, upgraded to amd fx 8370, gtx 1050ti 2gb, same 128 boot drive, 4tb hdd, 16gb ddr 3, cooled with an aio, I have also done three full resets with drive reformatting, and once a full cmos clear when updating bios to 1603, and it is still doing it, only constants is the motherboard that to my knowledge if damaged would not be spitting out that bsod, and the ssd which at times I have temporarily switched out, I have done sfx in cmd, and ram, cpu, and gpu stability tests I have had them over clocked off and on, I have all of my motherboard, gpu, ect. Drivers installed, I have ran vipre security for viruses and replaced cmos battery. That did not help, recently in the last week, my computer has been randomly crashing every... whenever it wants to. About a month ago I got a new PSU, but I traded out a PSU and it continued to randomly crash. I would have my computer on for about 1-30 minute(s) and it would crash, no error, just a blank screen. Sometimes it would turn back on by itself, other times I would have to wait and press the button. Then the power button stopped working completely, so I replaced the wire and it didn't fix it. So I just started tripping the power pins with a screw driver, that didn't work about 85% of the time. In the last two weeks the number of crashes has dramatically increased, I started to get overclocking errors, this is really strange since... I haven't overclocked my computer at all. So what is going on, my best guess is a motherboard issue, but if I get a new motherboard, I am definitely upgrading it, so that means new socket and new cpu, and probably new ram. I don't want to dump $400 to fix a two cent issue.
