Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The WHEA error is a direct report from the CPU's internal hardware error checking logic. This occurs when internal logic gates or cache parity checks fail due to silicon degradation or an inability to maintain stable clock cycles at the factory-set voltage.

Motherboard (Mainboard)
The motherboard's Voltage Regulator Modules (VRMs) are responsible for high-speed switching to provide stable DC power to the processor. If these components fail or exhibit thermal drift, the resulting voltage ripple triggers a hardware-level shutdown to prevent catastrophic component damage.

Power Supply Unit (PSU)
Gaming PCs experience high transient power demands; a PSU that cannot maintain steady voltage rails during peak GPU/CPU loads will cause a system-wide brownout. This electrical instability is detected by the Windows Hardware Error Architecture as a fatal hardware failure.
