In short, your PC is experiencing random restarts while gaming, especially with Black Ops 6. You mentioned crashes with DirectX errors possibly linked to an overclocked GPU, but your GPU and CPU aren’t overclocked. Sometimes it occurs multiple times per hour, other times it goes weeks without happening. A similar problem occurred a year ago, resolved by replacing the power supply—your current setup is a Seasonic 850W. Now it’s happening again. Previously, you heard a distinct click before shutdown, but this time it just stops and restarts. Your CPU temperatures spike to high levels (80s), yet it would restart when temps were lower (60s–70s). Here are your specs: Intel Core i5 13600K, DeepCool CASTLE 240EX, Zotac RTX 3070, Seasonic Focus GX-850, 850W PSU, G.Skill Trident Z DDR4 2x16GB, 3600MHz, Windows 11 Pro 23H2, Nvidia drivers 566.03. You’ve updated the BIOS but didn’t fully fix the issue. No minidump files appear, suggesting it isn’t a full crash dump. I’ve used DDU and reinstalled GPU drivers; attached a photo of your setup for reference. Any advice would be appreciated.
