I have recently built a PC and I want to leave windows and start using linux (so I am a newbie). All PC parts are new without the GPU which is a old one (but still good imho).
I am experiencing once in a while PC freeze (CTRL+ALT+F1 does not work, I have to hard reset), have tried a few games (from steam) and they all crash after a few minutes of playing (I have tried them on windows10 and they work without any problems).
I have tried some tweak found online (like adjust swap, try older/newer drivers for GPU/BIOS etc.), also I tried other distro like Ubuntu but still having the same experience.
Here are PC`s spec:
