Windows 10: Pc deadlocks when gaming.

So essentially while gaming after a random amount of time my PC will completely deadlock screen freezes, sound stops, keyboard and mouse become unresponsive forcing me to force **** down my PC. This has happened continuously since yesterday and mostly while gaming, but sometimes while just watching YouTube. Sometimes after deadlocking my PC will come on after restarting but will blue screen, with each blue screen being a different error.I have tried running diagnostics, checking ssd/hardrive and memory, all say they are fine. So I have no clue if this is a driver error as I have made sure al

PC constant deadlocking

Hello, i have a problem with my pc. The pc randomly deadlocks and i cant do anything except turning it off and back on, it even deadlocked when i was resetting my windows, in safe mode and when booting up the pc it deadlocks. the only time that it doesnt
deadlock in is in the bios menu.

i tried the following to fix; none worked

checked the temps, they were fine

reinstalled windows and wiped my drives empty

startup repair

chkdsk command

windows memory diagnostics

resetting bios

running the pc with one stick of ram (i tried both sticks, no difference)

the pc can literally deadlock at any given time, without any stress being put on the pc, so no programs running no nothing just a random deadlock

and im thinking its definitely a hardware problem, the thing i want to know is what faulty hardware can cause this.

my psu fans spin normally, no strange sounds

my cpu fan doesnt make weird noises so its fine

the other options are the mobo, ssd i have windows on, the ram and my apu

these are my specs:

B450M S2H

Ryzen 3 2200G APU with vega 8 integrated

120gb ssd

coolermaster masterwatt lite 400w

2x4gb 3000mhz ram

someone pls help im getting frustrated

 

I have constantly been deadlocking for the past week.
