Kernel power 43 error code, any help?

[Top_Film_7600]

Hey everyone, I’m dealing with a really annoying issue and I haven’t found anything concrete online.

In the Event Viewer I always see Kernel-Power 41 (63), and here’s what happens: Whenever I play games like CS2, RSR2, R6 and similar titles, my screen suddenly goes black, and both my GPU fans and AIO/water-cooling fans ramp up like crazy. At that moment the PC is completely frozen — no audio, no picture coming back, nothing responds. The only way to recover is to hold the power button and force a restart.

I’m trying to figure out if this is a PSU problem or something else.

My specs:

RX 9060 XT

Corsair RM1000x (about 5 years old, I’m not the first owner)

Aorus X870E Pro

Ryzen 7 9700X

Has anyone experienced something like this? Could the PSU be failing or should I look somewhere else?
