My device becomes unresponsive during gaming sessions, yet audio playback persists. Certain games frequently terminate unexpectedly. I'm unable to determine the root of this issue. System temperatures remain consistent.

Check your graphics card’s performance using GPU-Z with the rendering test feature. If it crashes, identify which driver is being used and try utilizing the operating system’s generic driver to determine if that causes a crash.
It’s possible the difficulty lies not with your equipment, but with the game's program itself.
Attempt to check if the game files are complete and undamaged.
Determining the cause of this problem is challenging.
Unfortunately, this appears to occur in several games, although not every single one. I will attempt to address it nonetheless!
Moving forward—the amount of memory and processing power my graphics card and central processor utilize, even when set to maximum detail in these games, remains below 80%. I have also attempted running the same games with their lowest settings, but these freezes persist.
Recently, both Divinity Original Sin 2 and Rust have caused my computer to freeze. Divinity is a relatively light game, and my hardware should be capable of running Rust with maximum graphics settings. Furthermore, I’ve attempted to play these games at their lowest configurations as I previously indicated. Additionally, Apex Legends now experiences crashes, though it doesn't result in freezing my system.
