While using Windows, any GPU-heavy tasks like Photoshop AI work, gaming, or benchmarking cause random hard resets. This behavior is exclusive to Windows. I can handle benchmarks and games well on Linux, suggesting a software-related problem. I've reinstalled several times due to this issue, and it continues across Windows 11 LTSC and Pro versions. It also raises the possibility of a driver problem. I'm currently using AMD Pro drivers, but they crash under standard Adrenalin drivers as well. The Pro drivers seem more reliable for me. I've attached my dxdiag file and the DxDiag.txt log.

It seems like the problem might be with the driver. You could try DDU, or consider using an NVIDIA GPU since they've had minimal issues for over a decade. If you go with AMD, stutters and crashes often occur, but alternatives like Matrox and Intel are available if you need better performance (both mid-range).
