Windows 10: My PC keeps blue screening when playing games

Hello, My pc keeps blue screening on games that I play. Specs are:-AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor-Corsair vengeance pro 16.0 GB ddr4-Gigabyte Geforce RTX 3060-Samsung 980 1tb ssdthe pc works fine when not playing any games but when I do that's when the problem arrives. I thought it was my first graphics card as it was old and I assumed it was causing the issue, but then I upgraded and the issue still persists. All my drivers are up to date and my bios is also. I also turned off fast start up as I was told this could be the issue. when I use windows dbg the name I get is AuthenticAMD.sysTh

my system keeps on crashing. (blue screen)

Hello Harrison,

A stop error (also called a "blue screen" error) can occur if a problem causes your PC to shut down or restart unexpectedly. These errors can be caused by both hardware and software issues.

To better assist you with your concern, I'd like to know the following:

• Confirm which build is currently installed on your device. To check, follow the steps below:

• Press Windows key + R, then type in winver.
• Click OK.

• Were there any recent changes made prior to this issue?
• What is the make and model of your device?

Meanwhile, we recommend performing the suggested steps in this article to troubleshoot blue screen issues
on Windows 10.

Looking forward to your response.

PC Build Steps

Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval

• Install system in case
  • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
• Turn on PC
• setup HDD
• run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
  • run realtemp at the same time

• While in Prime95 test
  • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
  • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
  • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!

What do you guys think??
