Hello everyone, this is my first post onto this forum after quite literally years of lurking. I apologize in advance if this is not posted to the right area.
I have been experiencing periodic blue screen issues with my PC for about 2 to 3 months now. Various things causing crashes, too long to list. It got to a point where I was so tired of having to perform various fixes that I opted to just reinstall windows last night. I even created an entirely new USB to install from, downloaded the latest version from Microsoft just to make sure it wasn't my old bootable USB that was the problem.
After installing windows, updating, installing GPU and mobo drivers, I ran an elevated command prompt and executed and sfc /scannow command. To my surprise, "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them. Details are included in the CBS.Log %WinDir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log." appeared before me.
Is this normal? Should a fresh and seemingly flawless install of Windows results in corrupted files being found?
After running that, experiencing no crashes while testing the system. I downloaded steam, a few games, and just enjoyed the PC as normal and for the most part I have done the same today.
Until today, at 5:45pm PST, less than 48 hours since I put a fresh OS onto my system. It crashed. I have the dump file here, as well as as screenshot of what bluescreenview told me about the crash. It is located HERE (sorry about the mega but I don't use onedrive).
Things I have already done in effort to diagnose the problem:

Things I have already done in effort to diagnose the problem:
- Run memtest86 multiple times on my RAM, in dual channel, and individually, with and without XMP, yielding 0 errors on all passes
- Use DDU to completely remove and reinstall my NVidia drivers
- Remove/Uninstall/Updated any possible software that could be causing crashes (iCUE, Asrock RGB, MSI Afterburner, etc)
- Stress/Test the system with various benchmarking/testing software (GPU, CPU, RAM intensive tasks, Crystal Disk, etc)
- Bring my PC to a local tech who ran much of the same hardware tests that I did, revealing no hardware component as failing.
