My prebuilt pc keeps crashing when playing games.

Richard S_2134 · Dec 13, 2022

Hello, whenever I game sometimes (not always) I get a BSOD, it's only been BSOD. One such occasion happened around 20 minutes ago, I was playing Minecraft, and all of a sudden I get a BSOD. I was using shaders on Minecraft and my specs should be good enough for shaders as I was getting a constant 144 fps. Every time I play Minecraft, I can never get over 10-15 minutes of playtime before BSOD. I have already tried to find a solution to my problem; however, I have no idea what is causing my computer to crash.

System Specs:

OS: Windows 11 Home

Version: 10.0.22621 Build 22621

System Manufacturer: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.

System Model: B560 DS3H AC-Y1

Processor: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-11600KF @ 3.90GHz, 3912 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s)

Installed RAM: 16GB

Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060

I don't know the PSU but it says a maximum of 600 Watts

if need more specs i can list more

Hello Richard S_2134

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

Based on the description you posted, it seems that you have an issue with Windows wherein you are only able to play games around 10-15 minutes and then your System just crashes with BSOD error.

Let’s work together in finding the best solution to this issue.

For me to better understand the issue, I’d like to ask a few questions:

• When was the last time you were able to play without this problem? Have you made any changes before this issue has occurred?

• What other troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?

• If possible, kindly please provide a screenshot of the error message. In order for us to fully isolate your concern.

In the meantime, we would like you to provide us with some answers first to the questions above. In order for us to provide you with a more accurate solution.

We look forward to your reply,
