Greetings! I come to this forum after one year of having issues with my computer. All of my specs are on my profile, but here they are anyways :
AMD Ryzen 5 3600x
ASUS Prime B450 Plus
ASUS GTX 1660 Ti Phoenix
16GB 2933MHz
M.2 240GB A1000
2TB Seagate Barracuda
nJoy Titan 500W PSU

As for details with my problems, there are many. The most common of them all is the BSOD "Video Scheduler Internal Error". I have tried wiping drivers, trying one RAM stick at a time, reapplying thermal paste on my CPU, changing the motherboard but to no avail. Sometimes, the screen would go randomly black and recover after a second or so. Sometimes, my video drivers are completely gone and there is no NVIDIA Control Panel. As for games, here are some details:
Apex Legends - Video Card no longer detected or driver failed (can't remember exact error code)
Fortnite - Used to "Application has crashed and will now close", but now will display a render from the past, for example the Item Shop or Battle Pass, while the game itself it's still working (tested by speaking with friends ingame, still hear them after display bug)
Roblox - Randomly freezes, won't come out unless I open it again.
Minecraft - Shows me the red minecraft logo, then everything except mobs is transparent.

I have tested it on 3DMark, but only managed to get it to finish twice. I let it running on FurMark for over 20 minutes, but no crashing.
I need help.
 
Thanks! I'll get a better one for my birthday and see if it does anything.
 
"16GB 2933MHz"
What the Ram's timings?
Have you tried clearing the CMOS and running at default?
 
Not sure, but its along the 16-15 from what I know. Ill check

Here are the timings

Getting a better PSU might not fix your issue, but it won't make it worse either.
I have my doubts it is the PSU if it can run Furmark but crashes during games etc.
 
I didnt suspect the PSU at first because theres simply so many clues in my opinion pointing towards the GPU. Big note is the fact I used to have a Strix version but they replaced it with the Pheonix due to issues

The fact my games still run but all I can see is a former render is kind of weird
 
Uneven Cas Latency (15) can cause a myriad of confusing issues with AMD systems.
You have the option of getting new Ram or manually adjusting the timings to an even number.
Hopefully someone with more experience can help there.
 
Will adjusting the timings myself risk any damaging? If not, Ill be willing to try it out
 
for example, if software errors :

BIOS->Load Default Options
