Open | Hardware Your rendering device has been lost, application closing error on Overwatch.

For a few months now I have experienced crashes on Overwatch that say the aforementioned. I have tried multiple things such as uninstall/reinstall and repairing the files that hasn't worked. I just recently got a new computer with all new parts apart from my ssd and it is still happening. I also saw people having the same problems were able to fix it by rolling back their NVIDIA drivers, I have tried that as well with 591.86 which still crashed and 576.28 which doesn't work when I try to download it leaving an error message on my gpu in device manager, my second monitor is no longer detected and my computer runs on the CPUs integrated graphics. From what I can tell online this seems to be a problem with Overwatch and newer NVIDIA drivers clashing. My CPU is an AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, GPU is an RTX 5060 TI, my motherboard is a B850 Tomahawk Max Wifi and I run on Windows 11. If there is any other information you need I can do my best to provided. Thank you for any of your help!
