Lately I've been seeing a kernel panic here and there. Currently running 10.12.3. What's the best way to determine where the crashes are coming from? Should I just wipe and re-install?
Thx

I was getting them semi-regularly on my 2016 iMac (which I'd upgraded from El Capitan to Sierra). I spent ages with Apple support trying to get to the bottom of it (initially I thought it might be Duet causing an issue with the display drivers, but uninstalling it didn't help) with no luck
In the end I gave up and did a wipe and clean install of Sierra (and re-installed everything rather than restore a backup). Since I did that 3 weeks ago I haven't had a single kernel panic so in my case it looks like the issue could have been caused by the upgrade

I actually was on 10.12.4 beta, but then had some issues so I TM'd back to 10.12.3.
Do the panics occur when running through an external monitor/doing anything graphical intensive? Or just with normal usage? In the event of the former, it could be graphics.
Are there any logs in /System/Logs/DiagnosticReports?
Also you can try a PRAM/SMC reset, never hurts.
Best point of call as it's a new machine is to report it to Apple — is there a store local to you?
Actually, I just hooked up my 5K LG, in clamshell mode, and then all of a sudden it KP'd.
I will try PRAM / SMC reset, otherwise if it gets bad then I'll try wiping it.
Thx

Hmm, really does sound like graphics. But if you're happy to take the time to reinstall the OS, that should confirm whether or not it's hardware.

Well, ended up re-installing and all is right in the world again.
Edit: and of course two days later 10.12.4 comes out.
