    PC crashes/reboots when playing a certain game


    This only happens when I play the game Stellaris. It works fine for up to an hour or so, but then my computer freezes, the audio glitches, and after a while, it reboots. I'm certain my hardware is good enough to run the game, but I'm not sure what's causing this issue. Note that this has only happened when playing Stellaris. Any other game I play runs fine.My drivers are updated, and my RAM is fine. I think it might be an issue with the PSU, but I'm not sure, so I'm asking here.

  2. PC Crashes and Reboots when playing one specific video game

    As the title says, whenever I play a certain game, the PC crashes and reboots. It is the only game that does it, as any other video game doesn't do that. It's been happening for about 2 days now.

    Here are the DMP files from the crashes.

    Reboots/Crashes while Gaming

    Hello,

    I have random crashes while playing games. Its the same problem as in this thread Random-ish reboots

    So basically when playing a game the PC randomly crashes into a reboot. This occurs completely random and without warning.

    As suggested in the linked thread I disabled fast startup, which sadly didnt fix the problem.

    I also monitored my temperatures which are fine. A workaround that seems to be stable is lowering my graphics settings to very low.

    I attached my V2 Logs after a Crash. Windows Version is 1909 (OS Build 18363.720)

    PC crashes/reboots when playing a certain game

    Crashing when playing certain games.

    Just going through things step by step to make sure I've done them all.
    Entered powercfg -h off, but there wasn't any confirmation etc so unsure if this worked.

    Other conversations led me to believe that it was a RAM issue, so I have since upgraded my RAM but the issues persist. I've also tried changing ram slots, loading only one ram stick etc as suggested in previous posts.



    This should be the link for the LOGS folder


    This should be the link to the WHEA folder.

    At the time I had not been overclocking, but the problem persists whether I'm overclocked or not - so currently running with A-XMP profile 1 enabled (msi b450 gaming plus max mobo). I also currently have "precision boost overdrive" enabled, but didn't at the time of crashes.

    My main issue now is severe stuttering in games (not the game alone, but the entire pc itself freezes for a split second.) If this is no longer a suitable forum for my topic please let me know and I can move it!
