PC Keeps freezing and crashing during games

So I have something interesting happening. It doesn't happen in Sim (well, not that I've seen it happen yet). My pc keeps freezing when I'm playing games. CS:GO, Fortnite, Apex, PUBG, anything. It'll run fine for the first half of a game, then it'll either randomly freeze and I'll have hard restart my pc, or it'll flicker and restart itself. My temps never get above normal range, in fact, I think they're quite low. 50 C on CPU and 65 C on GPU was around average.

I've tried uninstalling software, new drivers, pretty much everything but a clean install, because that's the absolute LAST thing I want to try. Any suggesting before I hate myself?

Check RAM. Could be a bad stick or port. Move them around and try eliminating sticks if you've got multiple.

Oof, forgot about that. I have another 8gb stick ordered anyway. I'll try it when it comes tomorrow. Thanks
