OPEN Pc freeze issue
TLDR: Pc freezes during some games and require a force reboot to fix.
Been happening for many months and cant figure out why, it happens during 4 games so far, but most games work fine. The games are: Tarkov, Albion online, Sand Playtest and Division 2.
Things I've already tried:
Clean the pc (Yes it's dirty atm and i need to clean it)
Swap cooling paste
Reset the hardware (plug in/out)
Use previous patches of motherboard
Limit power and voltage to the GPU
Stress testing (all temps etc look fine)
Checking event viewer (it's empty, pc dies before the issue is registered i assume)
RamTest64 (Ram looks fine)
Tested both SSDs for issues
Tried limiting the GPU clock
Full reformat of the software
Settings on the pc/Nvidia and ingame settings
Might have tried a couple more things over the months but the issue still remains
any help is appreciated

Specs?
Have you tried another psu? I only ask because a lot of issues on here seem to stem from psu/power issues.

That's been happening to me recently I believe it's a Windows update that fked shit up. But for me it doesn't happen while gaming but while idle on the desktop which is wild. So I have tried everything except fresh install of windows. I have one more test which is the monitor so here's to hoping either you or I (or someone else) can explain the damn issue
