My pc keeps crashing when I'm playing games and it's really frustrating me. It also sometimes fails to boot up. I have the latest BIOS, GPU drivers and I have no virusses. I'm running windows 10 pro.

mobo: asus prime b350 plus

GPU: gigabyte geforce gtx 1070 windforce 

CPU: ryzen 5 1600 no overclock at the moment.

RAM: 16gb crucial ballistix 2400mhz

ssd 525gb crucial ssd

Hard drive: seagate barracuda 2TB

is your cpu / ram overclocked ?

is your ram timing the same for all sticks ?

my CPU isn't overclocked, but my ram is overclocked to 2400mhz with my motherboard preset

whats the stock speed of that memory ? you might want to dial it back a bit

with stock speed you mean the speed that's in the name of the memory? its running at 2400mhz and that's what the fabricator rates it at

then its not overclocked. can you check the CAS latency and make sure its right ? as well as the ram timing ?

Things I would try in order:

  • Reset the CMOS, boot with as few devices plugged in as possible.
    • If this prevents crashing, add one device back on at a time.
  • Boot with 1 stick of RAM only, try each slot.
    • If this prevents crashing, update your bios and run memtest with all RAM.
  • Check SSD health (CDI should be sufficient)
  • Swap PSU if you have a spare

Sometimes I get builder's itch

Also just to check, is this a BSOD crash, soft lock (only mouse can move), etc?
