Hello,
Recently I've been having random crashes on my PC. I've tried several things at this point now but to no avail. It started approximately two weeks ago, on 01/09/22. I was share screening some youtube video on discord for a friend and my computer completely froze up, did that audio glitch noise and so I hard shut it down. I figured it was a one off crash. When I booted back up, I would periodically have my share screen crash on discord (not the computer, just had to reshare the discord screen) A few hours later, it began blue screen crashing at random intervals.
I tried changing a bunch of discord settings, (hardware acceleration, completely reinstalled discord). Nothing seemed to work. I did DDU and a fresh install in Safe Mode, reinstalled all of my lan/audio drivers, did a BIOS update, sfc scan - nothing worked. The crashes were seemingly random, but seemed to happen more when I was playing a game or sharescreening on discord.
So finally and reluctantly, I did a Windows Recovery (Using the Keep Personal Files setting) via the Cloud option. I reinstalled most of my programs (steam, discord, etc) and things were fine for a few days. Then the crashes started again. I moved the RAM around and booted in various configs. I Ran MemTest86+ for 9 consecutive clean passes (image attached). I ran Prime 95 for a few hours, ran FurMark several times to stress test GPU/CPU. Was completely fine for both of them, nothing insane on the temps. I've consulted with several knowledgeable friends and have probably tried a few other things not mentioned here but nothing helps. The crashes are completely random - I've been in bed reading at 1 am, CPU idle for hours, and noticed the light from the monitors change and see it blue screen. I reboot, it crashes again in 10 seconds. Then it's fine for 4 days of usage (gaming, discord, browsing) before I get another crash.

-Various bluescreens and their error messages, as well as the MemTest86+ 9 pass screenshot. One bluescreen was just two white dots on the screen(this one didn't showup in bluscreenview)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dmrNNkQ4yBGWZ0XvM-IaZguHprcm0yei/view?usp=sharing- Contains the MiniDump files for BlueScreenView (let me know you need me to upload these elsewhere -this link should not be restricted and should be open to all if I did the settings in MyDrive right)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Rwev0Ws_t1BsZHwTHh4D0vPf95FJVf-_/view?usp=sharing - Slightly newer dump - shortly after I posted this thread it crashed twice consecutively. It made me do the windows repair/diagnosing thing then rebooted as normal, but I have included this log as well in case it is needed.
List of Components:
CPU: Intel Core i7-9700K
GPU: Nvidia RTX 2070S (Super)
SSD: Intel 660p NVMe PCIe M.2 1TB
SSD: Tcsunbow X3 1TB
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws V DDR4 3200 C16 2x16GB
MBD: Asrock Z390 Pro4
Please let me know if you need any other information from me, or if I have formatted this thread incorrectly . I'll be monitoring this thread regularly and will try to respond quickly. I am extremely grateful for any expertise or insight that anyone can offer.
