I'm facing a frustrating issue where my games keep crashing right from the start of a round. It's been a week since I built my new PC, and I'm starting to worry that I might have made a mistake. Currently, I only have Valorant and CS2 installed, and both of them crash unexpectedly. Here are my PC specs: Intel i5 12400, H610M motherboard, 2070 Super GPU, 16GB RAM at 3200MHz, 512GB SSD, and a Thermaltake 650W PSU. Any thoughts on what might be causing these crashes? Thanks in advance!

Another thing to consider is your power supply. A 650W PSU should be enough, but if it's not providing stable power, it could lead to crashes. Make sure it's properly connected and that there's no overheating.
It sounds like a rough start! Have you checked if your drivers are up to date? Sometimes outdated graphics drivers can cause games to crash. Also, running a hardware diagnostic could help pinpoint if there's a hardware issue.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll definitely check my drivers and run a diagnostic to see if anything's off.
Good point! Overheating can be a hidden culprit too, so make sure your case has good airflow.
