My computer has been having problems recently when trying to play games. I am able to play low spec games like osu and hearthstone as much as I want, as well as using it to just stream videos from a browser, but the second i launch a game such as PlayerUnknowns or Overwatch it crashes when its loading the title screen. I'm unsure whether it is the psu, cpu, or graphics card. I had similar problems about 6 or 7 months ago but I replaced the psu and the problem went away. I just wanted to make sure it was the power supply and not some other component.

Specs:

Cpu: AMD FX 8350 stock w/ stock heatsink

Mobo: MSI 970 Gaming running the latest update

Graphics Card: RX 470 Sapphire 4GB Reference Driver Version 17.4.4

PSU: A Thermaltake 650w

Ram: 2x4gb kit Corsair Vengeance Pro @ 1333 mhz

Storage: 1tb Toshiba + 3tb Toshiba + 240 GB Sandisk Ultra 2 

I am also running windows 10 64 bit

I attached a picture of my event viewer logs w/ me testing multiple things to see if it would alleviate the crashes
