I've been using this PC for more than six years, and lately it's been acting up. It began with repeated BSODs in F1 22 a few weeks ago, which eventually caused the system to fail to power on until the CMOS was reset. After that, it worked normally for a while. Two days back, while playing AC Odyssey, the whole machine froze completely. No alerts appear—just the screen freezes, audio stops, and it restarts by itself. Over the past couple of days it has crashed multiple times quickly. There was one BSOD when using Chrome IRQL_not_less_or_equal, matching the F1 22 issue. MSI Afterburner showed around 60°C for both GPU and CPU, so overheating isn't the cause, though I'm unsure otherwise.

System details: Windows 10 64-bit, Intel i7-6700k, MSI Z170A Gaming M3, Nvidia GTX 1070, 2x8GB DDR4 2133MHz, EVGA Supernova 850W PSU, 250GB Samsung EVO 970 NVMe SSD, 500GB Kingston SATA SSD, 2TB Toshiba HDD.
