Hello, Your PC frequently shuts down and restarts after extended use (over 8 hours) or following AMD recording software sessions or Discord streaming. The hardware specs are: RX 6700 XT Gigabyte Gaming OC 12GB (used from a miner), Ryzen 5 3600 16GB, RAM 3200MHz MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MOBO. I've already run memory diagnostics, verified the registry, performed a clean GPU and chipset driver reinstall. No overheating issues or additional overclocking. I suspect a potential GPU hardware problem. Wattman isn't providing notifications when reverting settings to defaults, unlike previous changes. I'm attaching my recent memory dump files from the past two weeks. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Recent bios updates? Up-to-date GPU software? Have you saved chipset drivers from the board maker or AMD directly? If AMD drivers for the chipset are available, they’re the latest versions.

Check the newest GPU drivers and chipset options directly from AMD’s site. It seems your BIOS is running a slightly outdated version, but an update might not resolve the issue.

Consider power source. Run tests without the GPU card and utilize the built-in AMD iGPU.

The BIOS update worked initially but then reoccurred today. It appears to be happening unpredictably, making it difficult to identify the cause.

I went back to an older GPU driver version, possibly preventing this issue from occurring again
