The computer generally starts well but occasionally crashes unexpectedly, and the GPU fans reach maximum speed. I suspect the GPU might be defective. During my troubleshooting, I installed a new DDU graphics driver, updated the BIOS, replaced the thermal paste on the GPU, and checked the PCIe cables and PSU for damage—no issues found. Any advice would be appreciated.

What changes are being made to the system? If there are any adjustments, pause and check for stability. A starting point is necessary.

Remove the low voltage and check if it functions identically.

Yeah, I actually lowered the voltage because I believed it was crashing from PSU spikes. It didn’t do anything noticeable.

What is the current speed of your memory? If you switch to removing your GPU and using the built-in video adapter, does the system remain stable?

My memory is set at 3200 on XMP.
I don't understand what you mean or how to proceed.

Disconnect the physical graphics card from the system and link the monitor to the video output on the motherboard.
