Crashes are unusual. Was the system stable with other versions of Debian 
or other operating systems?

My checklist:

(1) Basic hardware test:

- Test memory with memtest86+ (found at the boot prompt or on 
installation media).

- Stress test using mprime (prime95). Some crashes can be caused by 
stress due to overheating or power supply problems.

(2) Graphics drivers can cause crashes:

- What graphics device and driver are you using?

- If you are using a recent Intel Skylake CPU/IGPU, you are strongly 
advised to use a recent kernel.

Other culprits are BIOS or ACPI problems. These are very hardware specific.

lshw will list all your hardware.

Kind regards,
