Random crashes or restarts

[Baresdakilla]

Hi, lately I've been experiencing some crashes/restarts. It happened 3 times today. Once when I was writing a document in word (computer restarted itself with no warning), and two times when I was playing GTA V (screen turned completely red and I had to hard reset the computer). I'm running Windows 10, almost fresh install (installed like 3 days ago, because it crashed the same way in AC:Unity and got stuck in self repairing loop). I went into Event logger and sure enough there were 3 critical errors from today (all Kernel-Power errors - ID 41, category 63).

Report from event logger is as follows:

My guess would be the PSU, but I want to hear your guys' thoughts on this before pulling the trigger on a new one. I also heard that it might be some memory issue (but that was in discussion for WIN7 from over 5yrs ago). And another tip I've seen was something about preventing computer from going to sleep mode (but I already tried that and it doesn't change anything).

Thanks for and kind of response.

what PSU do you currently have?

psu?

It's some old (6yrs?) fortron 650w psu. That's why I'm kind of suspicious that it might be that. But is there a way to know for sure? The error message is so vague, that nobody seems to know what causes the issue.
