Hey everyone, I've been facing crashes over the last month and have been trying to resolve them. Recently, after a fresh Windows 11 installation, the problem resurfaced. These crashes tend to happen during certain games I've installed many mods for, such as MW2, Siege, Cyberpunk, and DS3—almost every game seems affected. When it crashes, everything freezes and then restarts. Sometimes it triggers a BSOD, but the blue screen only lasts a millisecond, making it hard to capture the exact error code. I ran stress tests on my RAM, CPU (max 87c on Cinebench), GPU (64c max on Furmark), and even tried Crystaldisk, but the drives still crashed. I suspected a faulty drive based on some viewer alerts, though I haven't set up or used the one I thought was bad. Now I'm unsure what to do since my system isn't generating minidump files. I need guidance on how to diagnose the hardware issue.

When sharing a troubleshooting thread, it's important to provide detailed system specifications. List them clearly as requested:
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, mention the current BIOS version for your motherboard.
I recently performed a fresh Windows 11 installation.
Where did you obtain the installer for the OS? Did you complete the installation in offline mode? After the OS was set up, did you manually install all necessary drivers using the latest version via an elevated command, such as right-clicking the installer and selecting Run as Administrator?

CPU: Ryzen 5800x3d
CPU cooler: Deepcool LT520
Motherboard: Gigabyte B550 Gaming X
Ram: G.Skill Trizdent Z Royal 32GB
SSD/HDD: Samsung 980 M.2, Curucial MX500, Inland M.2
GPU: Gigabyte Aero 4080
PSU: SeaSonic Focus GX750
Chassis: Meshify C
OS: Windows 11
Monitor: AW3423DW
The power supply is about a year old, just upgraded from a Corsair when I installed the 4080. The BIOS version is F16c; I noticed a new F16g released on September 23rd on that site.
I created a USB in Windows Media Creation Online mode and installed GeForce Experience for my 4080. No other drivers were downloaded automatically except Windows ones. I didn’t run GeForce Experience as an administrator.
I’ve kept the system running smoothly this year until these issues appeared about two months ago. I’m wondering if something failed during that time, since I haven’t changed much beyond storage.
