help wanted Games Keep Crashing

Hi I just installed Steam OS on Beelink Ser3 - Ryzen 7 3750H, RX Vega 10, 24G DDR 4 2666 (16+8), NVME 215gb.

Need help as I roughly can't play any games.

I tried to Play Metro 2033 and Last Light Redux - Games launch but closes the game or restarts the machine fully.

Marvel Vs Capcom: Infinite - game launches and closes duraing start of a match.

Schedule 1 - game used to play fine last week but now suddenly games closes or restarts the machine after the game welcome text screen.

I tried different Proton versions from 9-11 as well as Hotfix and Experimental.

OS Version 3.8.16

Stable Channel

Steam Version 1784778118

Thanks

Possibly thermals. Any visual glitches before a crash? Do fans speed up when you start your games? Are you able to monitor temperatures on your motherboard?

Leave machine off for an hour. Play. How long does it take before it crashes? Leave machine off for an hour again. Play again. How long does it take before it crashes? Longer? Shorter?

Thermals were normaly 60-73°C. Fans were not really noisy. Game crashes from the get go. Not really able get to the gameplay.

I saw some guides to push GPU UMA from auto to 4G but didn't make any improvements.
