PC Crashing when I load into a game

So about a month ago my pc started crashing now and then when under load and was under performing. I opened it up and re built it from scratch, key point being that I had to replace the thermal paste because it looked like it was not cooling properly and was significantly darker than new paste. This fixed the crashing for a few days then it started crashing every time I launched a game that was taxing. I replaced the thermal paste with new thermal paste that wasn't opened before and this worked again for about a day and now my pc is crashing again. A few other problems are that I have had issues connecting my controller to my pc via bluetooth while it says unknown device every time. I also wiped all the files off the pc and re installed windows recently because I would consistently find corrupted files when scanning my pc. This didn't solve anything.

1) did the paste cover all of the cpu

olso what cpu/mb you're using 

2) did you check mouth? A friend had a problem whar 1 leg was damaged so the cooler did not properly cover the cpu 

Check if the cooler is not easily moved while its mounted 

3) is the chipset ok?

Ryzen 7 5700x and NZXT N7 B550

I got some paste on the cpu pins but cleaned it off using a miniature brush tool. I have been monitoring temps and the pc crashes while the cpu is running at 60 degrees celcius. Also I can run games in the back ground but when I full screen the game it crashes the pc.
