There seems to be a problem with the GPU connection, possibly due to a lost PCIe signal or a failing driver. Since this issue appeared after installing a new graphics card, have you attempted to reinsert it?
I kept encountering issues with GPUs that required more than a modest overclock, such as pushing over +15Mhz which caused problems. Others mentioned adjusting the clock speed down if they had an "overclocked" version to restore normal performance.
I understand this setup is quite old, but the same error keeps appearing. You mentioned having an RX470, but you might also try using a different model from NVIDIA. The solution seems to be turning on GPU Scaling, which I did and it resolved the problem without any further issues.
this seems to be a setup issue in the game settings. I suspect it's related to VRAM adjustments, as you mentioned stability with higher values but crashes otherwise. Some titles avoid overclocking due to performance sensitivity.
