The PC I just bought is running smoothly for short sessions, but after extended use of 3 to 4 hours it starts crashing during games. These crashes tend to appear regularly once they happen, though turning off the machine seems to resolve them temporarily. Checking the event viewer revealed that the issue is linked to nvwgf2umx.dll. I’ve checked for software problems—running memtest86, reinstalling Windows, and using DDU—but found no errors. My guess is it’s related to the PSU or motherboard, though I’m unsure which one needs replacement since all parts are covered by warranty. Someone with a similar problem posted a video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24b1I8oNnVM&t=63s

The precise model number for your PSU is available. I suggest updating your BIOS to the latest release as well.

I'm using Windows 10 since I have a license. I'll provide the exact model when I'm at home and perform a BIOS update. Thanks for the advice.

You can upgrade to Win 11 using the same license. Keep in mind that Win 10 support will soon stop.

It seems like you're referring to temperature issues.

It isn't the CPU and GPU temperatures that matter... the temperature is likely to cause throttling, but that's not happening.

Perhaps so, but what is certain about the issue you mention is that temperatures rise over time. You might consider removing the cover from the case and using a fan to circulate air within it. This could provide additional insights.
