My PC randomly shuts down with the Event ID 41 and I don't know what causes it

My PC shuts down randomly but most of the time when I'm playing games and sometimes when I have a game run in the background while I'm doing something else. The crashes usually occur when I play indie games but other games like cyberpunk 2077 work fine on medium graphical settings but when I try to play a small indie game I have a 50% chance of it crashing my PC sometimes 30min and other times 20h into the game.

This is my latest bug report:

    I will do that and should I then run the test again or try to just get a crash? Also this has been happening before I got the razer mouse and its software. Thank you.

    Hi OskarRecki,

    Please ensure Driver Verifier is now disabled.

    Driver Verifier indicates it is the device driver on some Razer peripheral on your PC that is causing the system crashes.

    Completely uninstall any Razer drivers and software from your PC, and wait to see if your system is stable.

    Then you can download the latest version of the required Razer drivers they provide on their website.

    So you think I should test it and if it's bad I should buy new RAM sticks?

    You have a bad stick of RAM.

    You can run this test to verify: https://memtest.org/

    But this all screams a bad stick of RAM to me, personally.
