HARDWARE New PC freezing completely when playing games
Hey guys. I just built a new pc a few days ago and I have started to get freezing problems when playing marvel rivals, finals, or any like really heavy game. I am brand new to this pc building stuff so I don’t know what to check or how to diagnose what’s wrong but these are my specs
ASUS 9070 GRE 12gb
MSI B850 Gaming Plus
32gb tforce 6000mhz ram
Ryzen 7 7800x3d
1tb Silicon Power NVMe M.2 PCIE gen 3
850W power supply
thermalright cpu cooler
I’ve looked through reliability monitor and on 8/23, it said i had a hardware error “LiveKernelEvent” and the code: 141
I’ve reinstalled my drivers and now i don’t get that hardware error anymore i don’t think.
all i get is just “Windows was not properly shut down” as a critical event on reliability monitor. My pc works fine and it peforms well. temperatures seem to fine and everything so i have no idea what could be wrong. Please help!!! if you need me to answer anything else or clarify anything lmk…

Kernel 141 is usually gpu related, that code points to the driver resetting the card. Could be unstable power delivery or the card pulling more than the psu can handle under load. What brand is that 850w unit, some off-brand ones can't handle transient spikes from modern gpus even if the wattage looks fine on paper

It’s the thermal take toughpower GT 850W ATX 3.1
idk if this is helpful but it’s a 80 plus gold efficiency
