unfortunately I'm poor, I don't have one available haha
I'll try with just one stick of ram

Dubito fortemente che la memoria mista causi arresti, proverei con un altro alimentatore come ho detto, la gamma XFX Pro ha già più di 10 anni.
I doubt that it is the power supply also because on the old pc that I had until a week ago it did not give the same problem, and I was playing the same games

Yeah, try that as a first attempt.

Maybe it had lower power consumption?

I highly doubt that mixed memory causes shutdowns, I'd try with another PSU as I said, the XFX Pro lineup is over 10 years old already.
If a stick is bad it surely can

So what's the deal?
I disabled the intel turbo boost in the bios, I bought another fan and I used only the 8 gb ram bank and it seems to have solved, hopefully wellI disabled the intel turbo boost in the bios, I bought another fan and I used only the 8 gb ram bank and it seems to have solved, hopefully well

Simple. 8GB + 4GB + 2x1GB or 3x4GB + 2GB.
I think that might be spelling some trouble for you. With the large variation in different sizes it would seem to me that there is a higher probability of a misconfiguration issue. That being said I would agree with some of the other posts here about PSU, older parts and PSU.

Penso che potrebbe essere un problema per te. Con la grande variazione nelle diverse dimensioni, mi sembrerebbe che ci sia una maggiore probabilità di un problema di configurazione errata. Detto questo, sarei d'accordo con alcuni degli altri post qui su PSU, parti precedenti e PSUnamely? I did not understand, the problem seems to have been solved, I'm playing with it and it doesn't turn off anymore
what do you mean? anyway I'm playing with it and it seems that it doesn't turn off anymore, maybe it's the right timenamely? anyway I'm playing with it and it seems that it doesn't turn off anymore, maybe it's the right time

I rectify, today playing Fortnite it turned off again, really not so it could be because if it were one of the components it should always give me the problem right?

Does it shut down entirely or just crash?

It can be (1) high temps (CPU, GPU, VRMs or Chipset), (2) bad connections, (3) bad ram (test with Memtest86+) and (4) bad capacitors in the PSU or MoBo.

A crash can be with a blue screen or instantly off.
Exactly and this was what I meant. And by shutdown I mean the same thing as someone comes and flips the power switch to off and the system just turns off instantly.

no, my pc turns off a few and I can't turn it back on for minutes

but for two weeks it went well, how could it be these problems you mentioned?

I can't blame no other component than PSU if that's the issue.

It looks like a capacitor problem in the PSU (like Lenne said) or motherboard, but it can be bad connections too. The bad connection expands with heat and the pc shuts down.

Never had that latter issue though I've always had connectors seated properly. Sounds weird but it could be possible.

I'd still say that it's the PSU itself.

Get to a shop and have the pieces tested before shotgunning parts in place.

No more going in circles

but if it was the power supply when it happens that it restarts, the LEDs of the motherboard and video card should turn off, why does it not happen?

UPDATE:
I carried out the test of the power supply with occ, for about ten minutes and it turned off, possible that the power supply is too crushed in the case and therefore is made to heat too much?
