I've been testing my PC over the past few days, trying to pinpoint the issue. Recently I played Minecraft and experienced a crash—no error messages, just black screens. When it restarts, the post page begins loading. Now the system rarely starts up into the OS, and when it does, it only lasts a few minutes. My main objective is to retrieve HWINFO logs (if available) and follow troubleshooting steps. I've checked GPUs, CPU coolers, operating systems (tried booting to another drive and a PBE), swapped out peripherals, removed internal drives, and even spun all fans. SMART data on every drive remains above 96%. I also changed RAM slots and performed slot/dim tests. The specs are: CPU AMD Ryxen 5900x, cooler Corsair Hydro Series H150i PRO RGB, RAM Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 64GB, motherboard ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Hero, GPU EVGA 3080 TI FTW3, and PSU Seasonic PRIME 1300W. Alternatives tried: cooler NHD 15, GPU 1660 TI.

I also reverted the CMOS and Windows isn't having enough time to start up. I've booted from other drives and a USB with PBE, trying to bring the drive back to an earlier state (I use Veeam for regular backups) but it's still the same. The problem isn't the operating system. ASUS just told me they'll replace the motherboard.
