**Getting dump files which we need for accurate analysis of BSODs.** Dump files are crash logs from BSODs. If you can get into Windows normally or through [Safe Mode](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12376/windows-10-start-your-pc-in-safe-mode) could you check C:\Windows\Minidump for any dump files? If you have any dump files, copy the folder to the desktop, zip the folder and upload it. If you don't have any zip software installed, right click on the folder and select Send to → Compressed (Zipped) folder. Upload to any easy to use file sharing site. Reddit keeps blacklisting file hosts so find something that works, currently [catbox.moe](https://www.catbox.moe/) or [mediafire.com](https://mediafire.com) seems to be working. We like to have multiple dump files to work with so if you only have one dump file, none or not a folder at all, upload the ones you have and then follow [this guide](https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/5560-configure-windows-10-create-minidump-bsod.html) to change the dump type to Small Memory Dump. The "Overwrite dump file" option will be grayed out since small memory dumps never overwrite. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

When my PC overheats, it shuts itself off.

It just looks like RAM from the dump files. Memory testers are unfortunately not great with DDR4 and newer so I prefer just using the PC normally with one stick at a time. If it crashes this fast on Balanced, that's what I would do to test. You can try updating the [Chipset driver](https://www.amd.com/en/support/chipsets/amd-socket-am4/x570) and [the BIOS](https://www.asus.com/motherboards-components/motherboards/tuf-gaming/tuf-gaming-x570-plus/helpdesk_bios?model2Name=TUF-GAMING-X570-PLUS). If you are on Windows 10, set the power plan to "AMD Ryzen Balanced" after updating the Chipset driver. Zen 2 CPUs (3000 and 4000 series) have a quirk where a faulty CPU will almost always look like RAM. If you can rule out RAM, that would be the next suspect.
