No one is ever truly out of the picture. Every driver has the potential to influence every other driver, which means outdated information or mismatched configurations—whether in settings, memory, or registry entries—can lead to unexpected issues. Still, keeping the most recent drivers for any hardware is generally advisable unless there are documented problems with a specific release, such as those seen with some graphics card drivers.
Good luck moving forward, and feel free to reach out if you encounter further challenges.
So a while later, the random reboots began again and I kept getting frequent beeps even after switching back to stock settings after trying to force the xmp profile to stay on for while. I thought the issue was a bad motherboard and upgraded to a 9900k and Z390 Aorus Pro board. The PC now runs smoothly, and I notice that over the past two years with the 2080 Ti, I wasn’t utilizing its full capacity at all. The 6800k was always limiting me for more than two years, anyway. Anyway, I thought it would be good to let you know.
