Awesome, thanks for your reply. As I stated in my reply to someone else in the message above this one, I have found something interesting. When trying to plug an HDMI (2.1) cable into my GPU, I am seeing electricty between the cable and GPU. I read online in a post regarding this issue that this...

Hello, apologies for the late reply. I was a few days away from home so was not able to try this. I have tried it right now and after quite a bit of struggle and stress, it sadly did not fix the issue. Something I did notice however, is tiny bits of electricity when I try to plug in an HDMI...

Sadly no improvements. I feel its a bit more stable after the bios update, but it still crashes more than once a day. Every crash I see the same errors/criticals in event viewer/reliability monitor: Reboot from a bugcheck 0x116. The description for Event ID 14 from source nvlddmkm cannot be...

Alright, just updated my bios. Will try this first to see if that helps, otherwise I can always try lowering my ram speed. Thanks for the suggestions, will keep you posted!

Just found something in the event viewer I would like to add: My pc just crashed again (~20 minutes ago) while i was grabbing coffee, I came back and it was at the login screen again. Checked reliability monitor to confirm and it showed the critical events 'windows stopped working', 'shut down...

Hello, thanks for your response! I have not made any hardware changes. Bios is not up to date, but I have never updated my bios so am not sure if thats something I should try regardless of hardware changes? Windows System Information states I am on BIOS Version/Date: American Megatrends...

Also, I analyzed the dmp crash log made by windows, using windbg. These are the results: View: https://imgur.com/a/IALQYTl Can this be of any use for you in helping me definitively identify the cause of these crashes and freezes?

Alright, noted! So would you recommend me looking for other things to try, on the software end? I don't have a USB hub so I would have to buy one of those to test if that changes anything. Do you think the USB connections are a possible cause for these issues and is that likely enough for me to...

Just wanted to add 1 more 'symptom' of these crashes. Quite often the crashes happen after closing out of 'heavier' applications, think videogames. For example just now, I had a videogame open for about an hour, no issues, I close out of the videogame and immediately my pc freezes and both...

I am not using a USB hub, these are all directly connected to the back of the case. I am using a Lian Li o11 Dynamic Evo case, which also has 2 USB ports, an audio jack and USB C port on the side of the case. I have the dongle connected here (USB A). So this dongle is not directly connected to...

Alright I have done this. Since the freezes are completely random I can't give you a definitive answer right away sadly. Sometimes it crashes multiple times a day, other times it does not crash for an entire day. If it does crash again, I will give an update. I would like to thank you in...

Okay so I have also ran a memtest now. Ran it for about 40 minutes but it resulted in 0 errors so far. Is it worth it to run it for longer? If so I can do a full run overnight, but I currently also have some things to do on this PC so don't have the time for it now.

I am currently only using 1 BT device, a Logitech wireless keyboard with one of those trackpads on it. I connect it to my pc using one of those BT dongles. Removing said dongles does not fix the issue sadly. Besides that I am not using anything wirelessly, its all connected using cables. Also...

Hello, thanks for your response! I have indeed ran dism and sfc /scannow. I have recently done a fresh install of windows however, so I did them again just in case. DISM came back clean, no component store corruption detected. sfc /scannow found corrupt files. When checking the logs and...

Okay so a follow-up on some things you said. Really new to this stuff so I will need some time to figure this all out. I just installed memtest on a USB, will run that in a bit to gather some results for you to hopefully help me figure out this issue. In the meantime I checked for my chipset...
