The system frequently encounters critical errors such as CRITICAL_PROCESS_FAILED or SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION. RAM performance remains stagnant at 0% during backups. BSODs appear during gaming sessions, persisting after upgrading to Windows 11. Switching RAM modules didn’t resolve the issue. Boot settings and installation media were altered to new SSDs, but crashes still occur with high-intensity titles like Deep Rock Galactic and CSGO. Lower-demand games such as Hades or Across the Obelisk are stable, yet crashes happen within minutes to hours of launch. RGB fan control was disabled, and the cooler’s RGB was turned off. Changing GPU power settings from dual cables to a single PSU connector temporarily halted crashes for about two weeks, though the problem reemerged yesterday. No dump files exist, and the event viewer shows only generic messages about a clean shutdown or unexpected reboot.

Are you experiencing any CPU overclocking? Please verify if I'm misunderstanding. Those games you referenced tend to be more demanding on the CPU than the GPU, yet they still require intensive processing. This applies to games like LoL as well. Consider executing these commands: SFC & DISM.exe at the provided link. In short, SFC checks are normal and not corrupted. Also, run "chkdsk /f /r" to ensure disk health. If the issue persists, a fresh Windows installation might be necessary.

CPU remains unclocked, all three operations (SFC, DISM, CHKDSK) executed before with no issues and no gains. Planned reinstall when disruption is minimal. Previous clean reinstall failed to help.

It seems like the GPU might be faulty. These two might offer some assistance, though it's unclear. (Related videos about the same topic)

Experiencing difficulties creating a dump file suggests potential problems such as an encrypted storage device (e.g., Bitlocker) or a small page file configured incorrectly. If left in automatic allocation, the page file should only appear if necessary due to other factors. Insufficient disk space is another possibility, especially for larger drives where the required percentage may vary but generally remains important for performance and longevity. A malfunctioning storage drive itself can cause these issues. Ensure your firmware is up to date and monitor temperature to avoid overheating or hardware failure. Verify the correct drive is selected for the page file; incorrect settings can lead to unexpected behavior. If you have access, run a system dump using tools like "systempropertiesadvanced" and inspect the performance settings. Adjusting the page file size and ensuring adequate free space can help resolve these challenges.

I encountered similar issues while assembling my latest PC. I applied all the techniques and advice I discovered online, but nothing resolved the issue. I’m curious if a single factor or several contributed to this problem. Since I built my system 20 years ago, components and settings have likely evolved, leading to some mistakes. Initially, I took these steps: 1. Placed the M.2 SSD in the main socket, 2. Removed the external HDD and installed it internally, 3. Performed a clean Windows installation without any additional software from the motherboard manufacturer, and 4. Improved airflow by opening the case top. After these adjustments, I realized certain services from the ASUS RIG motherboard were still running and attempting to install unwanted software at startup. Once I disabled these unnecessary services and removed many bloatware programs, my problems disappeared.
