   -----Specs-----

- Mobo: AsRock X670e Steel Legend
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800 X3D
- GPU: Zotac RTX 4080 Super Trinity Black
- Memory: Corsair DDR5 32GB (16GBx2)
- SSD: Samsung 990 Pro 2TB
- PSU: Corsair RM1000e

-----The Issue-----

So I've been having this issue for the last week. Everything was working fine and at times I can play games for hours without any issues at all. But about 70% of the time, the games freeze about 5-20 minutes in, followed by black screen and an automatic reboot to Windows. I've only tried 2 games so far (Destiny 2 & Marvel Rivals) and both using their own Anti-Cheat software...not sure if that's relevant.

-----What I've tried-----

- Multiple DDU Uninstalls for both NVidia and AMD drivers (in Safe Mode)
- Updated relevant drivers directly from Nvidia and AMD.
- Fresh Reinstall of Windows 10, then upgraded to Windows 11.
- Cleaned my PC of dust and reseated my GPU (first time I did this it worked for hours)
- Checked temperatures using MSI Afterburner and HWMonitor, all temps looks good.

Not sure if this is hardware related or something in BIOS, but would very much appreciate any help. I will say the GPU (Zotac 4080 Super) is an RMA from a couple months ago. Thanks!
