Encountered crash due to nvlddmkm error in the event viewer.
My system handles the games I enjoy well, but after some time they often crash unexpectedly. The more intense the game, the faster it fails, with Cyberpunk taking around 30 minutes and CSGO over an hour. In the Event Viewer you’ll notice several DistributedCOM warnings, but at crash time a "nvlddmkm" error appears with ID 0. Your temperatures are normal, no overclocking detected, and the only BIOS changes were XMP settings. This issue has occurred before; after a clean Windows install and driver reinstall using DDU, I returned my card and received a new one. With the updated card, I played Resident Evil 7 smoothly in my living room, but now I’m back in my room and experiencing crashes again. Might it relate to my monitor or display cable? Have you tried other solutions, or should I just request a replacement card again?

I attempted to change the power outlets, but it's hard to verify because I don't have a multimeter with me at college. It kept crashing after only two games in Overwatch. After a crash, I tried restarting my computer and it led me to the "reboot and select proper boot device..." screen. It managed to boot again normally after another restart, though I'm not sure if that was connected.
