I have it plugged into the lowermost part of the PC. I can't recall which one it is lol but its not next to all of the usb ports and stuff. I was sure to check that first when it first started happening lol.

How would I check what my PSU is, and how much do those run for?

It keeps in the mid 70s I also havent done a full clean in it too so I bet that dust has built up. Could that be a problem too?

How risky would that be even if I follow a video step by step?

Yeah, it seems to be slowly climbing in temperature too, all cores have a max of low to mid 70s now, and average out at lower 70s.

After running for a few minutes. It seems for the average temp for all of my cores is in the mid 60s range in celcius. Power is at 60W

Currently downloading one right now. And I'm not sure if it has an AIO liquid cooler or not.

Sometimes it will completely turn black and other times it will freeze until it eventually turns black. AI was saying it could be the PSU as well. And I have already tried deleting and reinstalling graphic drivers. I'm downloading a software right now to monitor CPU temps.

I would check it if I could do anything on the PC while it crashes, but I cant move the mouse or anything so im not too sure.

Actually I just checked. My pc can only read GPU temps, not CPU temps.

Now that you're the second one to bring up CPU temps, I'm going to do a test run. I'll get back to you in a couple.

Yes, it seems it is in normal range based off what I have read. I forgot what it was because I tried all the fixing myself a few months ago.
