In the previous year, while I still had my 3060, the drivers began failing and causing crashes on Pacific Drive, Overwatch 2, and Marvel Rivals. I attempted various fixes—using DDU, downgrading drivers, updating them, stress testing (no issues), swapping a GPU with friends—which unexpectedly resolved the problem on their system when they had my GPU. Eventually, I returned the 3060, upgraded it to a 7700xt, and sold the original model.

Now a few months later, the same issue resurfaced. This made me wonder if the problem wasn’t related to the GPU. However, I’m still unsure.

Last year, the motherboard audio connector was improperly connected, potentially causing a short circuit and damaging my board. I lack concrete evidence and prefer not to replace parts without solid proof.

Any suggestions or thoughts would be helpful.
My current specs are: MSI b550 gaming plus, 7700xt, 32 GB DDR4 RAM, 5 5600X.

When sharing a troubleshooting thread, it's important to provide complete system details. List your specifications as follows:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
Include the age of the PSU along with its make and model. Also note the current BIOS version for your motherboard.
However, I don’t have a way to verify this information, and I prefer not to just guess parts without proof.
Troubleshooting works by eliminating possibilities using spare components.
Parts:
In this situation, you’ll need to find these items (borrowed or not purchased) to identify the issue.

I don't understand the age of the PSU, right? I believe it's from 2019?
I've already recorded the CPU, MB, RAM, and GPU.
The case is a Lian Li.
