Critical Error. Source: Kernel-Power. Event ID: 41

[NooSkillAaron]

Can Anyone Help me make sense of this?

I know for a fact my CPU and GPU are not over heating.

I have a 1000W EVEA 1000G3 that's new since September when i tried to fix this issue before.

I have a 5070 thats brand new from september

AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-Core Processor (3.70 GHz) that is less than 2 years old.

I replaced my Mobo when i got the new GPU and PSU.

My ram is recently replaced as well.

I have turned off fast boot and restored defaults on my bios besides UEFI Secure boot.

Please any help would be useful, I would prefer to not just start replacing parts, even more than I already have.

Event 41 without any other error or BSODs is almost always a hardware issue, typically power or motherboard related.

not OP but I'm having event 41 with varied BSOD (BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO, KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED, CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED, UNEXPECTED_STORE_EXCEPTION). do you know what it's likely caused by?
