RTX 3060 Ti, Ryzen 5 5600X already installed on NVMe. After downloading some updates, it froze for a long time, so I had to restart from inside the case. After rebooting, it hung again after about ten seconds and then restarted briefly, eventually creating a dump file. I opened it with WinDbg and noticed the NVIDIA driver in that PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA section. I’m hoping this isn’t related to the GPU itself.

I also wanted to mention occasional problems with the GPU drivers in Windows 10 that led to hangs. These usually occurred when using the gaming or alt tabs, shutting down the PC, or after reinstalling drivers via DDU and adjusting settings in the NVIDIA control panel. Most of the time, fixing them was straightforward.
