Hi

I have been having problems when playing certain games where my pc freezes and restarts. It only happens with some CPU intensive games like Dying Light and now it is happening with Warframe. Power turns off and back on also during the restart. The funny thing is if I start up the same game again after the restart I have no problems for the rest of the day playing until I turn off my pc and resume the next day or so. Also when this happens a windows crash dump file is created even though it doesn't do the BSOD. I also get a WHEA logger fatal error in the event viewer. This is what the error is:

A fatal hardware error has occurred
Reported by component : Processor Core
Error source: Machine Check Exception
Error type: Bus/Interconnect Error
Processor APIC ID: 10

The APIC ID is random whenever the issue occurs. My PC specs are as follow:

Windows 10 Home X64 with build 19403 and latest updates
ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F WIFI GAMING updated to recent BIOS v2423
AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 3701MHz with Corsair H100i v2 Liguid Cooler
NVIDIA GEFORCE 1660Ti Video Card with latest driver from NVIDIA GEFORCE EXP APP
Hyper X Fury DDR4 3600MHz 8x4 (32GB currently installed with DOCP enabled)

I have attached some of the dump files so you can have a look and help me out. I have already started doing some troubleshooting and am going to do some other things to try and isolate and determine the problem.

It seemed to help but I don' know for sure. It didn't crash until a couple of days ago but this time it froze and didn't restart the pc. Yeah I did pay for Norton 360.
If it hasn't done it for a while then maybe it's an isolated event. Try running scannow and see what the results say.
