Okay so my pc started crashing a long time ago. Long story short it wasn't that troubling so i just ignored it but lately (about two to three months ago) it started going completely crazy. But what is wierd to me i can be writing something, chatting on discord, browisng web, playing or just straight up being idle and it will crash. I recently picked up minecraft again and to my surprise it didint crash while playing it for a collective 30 ish hours but on a bad day it can crash every 10 minutes while just existing. I've done pretty much everything i could. Here's a list what i've done so far
Starting from the oldest to the newest

Updated every driver i could
Updated windows several times 
Disabled audio drivers
Changed power plan several times from maximum to lowest and other way around for no diffrence
Updated graphics card drivers also several times from both nvidia experience and their website
Cheked temps of everything with nothing coming even close to being considered "hot" (both cpu and gpu never realisically crossed 60C and the vrm's werent hot too)
Checked ram with diagtool few times to no errors
Cheked every drive to also no errors
Checked windows files with sfc /scannow to a cople of errors but it fixed nothing
Changed to a new fresh psu (i wrote about it lower)
Installed a fresh win 10 
Updated bios 
Disabled "cool n quiet" in bios since that was the closest to what i could find to a "C state" thing with cpu a couple of ppl were telling me about (I just for the life of me could'nt find it in my bios and i dont know if it's under a different name in my bios or simply doesent exist. I checked asrock's manual and on the screenshots provided by them this "c state" was right under "cool n quiet" so im completely clueless)


I'll paste the full error im getting from event viewer here:

My specs: 
1050ti ocX from msi
Asrock's  AB350M Pro4 
ryzen 1600x
2x4gb 3000mhz + 2x8gb 3000mhz with identical timings (crashed before and after i added that 2x8gb ram so that cant be the problem)
2x hdd for storage and a 1x m.2 for system and few games that i play the most 
AND A NEW PSU (that i installed yesterday to who could've guessed no diffrence) cooler master mwe 450 plus bronze rating ((before i had greencell something something 500w, if its relevant ill post the orginal name later))

Just a note mixing RAM sizes and vendors absolutely can work, it's just not recommended for long term stability. I know LTT showed a video that it won't always crash right away, but that doesn't mean it's stable.

But I can't read anything from the event you posted.

 

Start with a super CMOS clear, pull your power cable out and the cmos battery, hold down the power button 1 minute and try again

 

If it still crashes then remove your older 2x8GB ram. Make sure to pull out your power cable before you do that.

If it still crashes try only one stick if you system can handle it. Make sure you try multiple sticks in that slot in case that stick is bad (RAM fails in crazy ways you never know)

Keep removing other components like any data drive until the crash stops.

 

If that doesn't work try and make sure your boot drive is healthy just in case: chkdsk /f /r (couldn't tell if you ran that)

 

If that all fails then update your UEFI BIOS

Okay so i'll update on what's happening

I updated uefi bios before so i didn't bother doing that just yet and moved to clearing cmos. I did that to no solusion it was still crashing as before so i started removing ram sticks. Firstly as you suggested i removed the older 2x4 and it was still crashing so i removed one of the new sticks and it still crashed and then i swapped it. (I of course seated them in correct spots) So far it didint crash in about 10 hours of usage. I'll continue to test it in different scenarios to see if its stable. Would you mind giving me some ideas for stress test programs that could help? And if it's stable what should I do? Since the new sticks were bought a month or two ago i can just give them back for warranty.

Aight a new update
I checked every drive and didint bother reinstalling windows yet. I tried changing gpu's and it didint help. Last idea i have is that something is corrupting my files and i'll completely format every drive one by one. Maybe that will help
