What I have tried 

Hello everyone, recently when I'm playing a few specific games my computer crashes and restarts. Most of the time I have not gotten a BSOD it just goes straight into the restart. I looked at event viewer and no dump was created (image 1). At first I thought it was the games fault since this problem aligned with a new game update, I researched and I read it might had to do with my disk drive dying, and I did see a few warning posts in the event viewer with a disk 5 being suddenly disconnected, however after further looking into it my "disk 5" was virtualized from vmbox so I dont think it has to do with anything, regardless I installed the game on a second drive and my PC crashed there as well.

 

I tried a second game for a while and that game also lead to a crash, but this time I saw the BSOD before it turned off, no dump was created again, I did look to say it was a  WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR. So there I confirmed it was not just the game. Something is going on, I ran a memtest (image2) and saw no issues there, I also ran heaven for about half an hour when this started and no crash.  I then installed Aida64 and ran that for around half an hour, full stress test and no crash. I alsoread about the bsod and tried following this steps: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/bsod-kernel-power-event-41-bugcheckcode-292/a4330e78-8145-4653-a3d5-89894a6d5f21 To change the minidumps but still none were created

 

 

First game (no bsod when crashing): MH rise sunbreak

Second game (BSOD when crashing at first, now its inconsistent): genshin impact

 

I'm straight up lost, no idea what to do here. I will run a longer stress test (a few hours) of aida64 stressing all of my system to see if that also crashes then update with an image below.  Im also running the resource and performance monitor tool, I will update that below as well as soon as its done but Im afraid I will crash again and lose this posts progress.

Attachments: what was asked on the bsod page

syscollectionapp (no dumps were being created during my bsods so I dont know how useful this is): https://www.dropbox.com/s/3wudw908u8xc9fr/SysnativeFileCollectionApp.zip?dl=0

Event viewer with critical and errors around my latest crash: https://www.dropbox.com/s/09mvnyvka80dy5z/events leading to carsh.7z?dl=0

Resource monitor: TBD (in progress) 

 

 

Update:

 

I can consistently crash the PC if i run heaven and aida together, I did two concecutive crashes and dumped the event logs 

 

crash 3.evtx

 

I will run aida by itself now to see if it can alone crash my PC while I once again run resource monitor.
