Windows 10: Hardware-Failure crashing my system

I build two identical computers roughly 8 months ago same OS, same hardware, mostly same software, same BIOS settings. Mine crashes randomly when I play video games, the other runs completely fine under the same loads.

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip

Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

Alternatively, you can find out why your PC crashed using built-in Tools on Windows.

Just follow the steps below:

Type Reliability into the Cortana search bar and click the first result. It should be a shortcut for View reliability history, a control panel option.

reliability-copy

If Windows crashed or froze, you’ll see a red X that represents the timeframe of the failure. Yellow icons signify more of a warning, a non-critical event. Click the icon to see what happened.

At the bottom, you’ll see a list with the source of the failure. Click View technical details to find out more information about the issue. Alternatively, you can weed through all recent failures and near-misses by clicking the View all problem reports link
at the bottom.

From here, you’ll see the error that caused the failure, as well as the file involved. Some problems may even include a fix, or an additional option to troubleshoot the issue, although these are typically only for problems related to some (but not all) driver
issues.

Click OK to close the window and return to the list of errors.
