I have recently had this issue where if I am playing a game which runs on 144 fps, after playing for about 30-40 minutes I get a BSOD usually it's "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL".
This never happens when I'm playing games that I run on 60 fps, only with high fps. This only happens while I'm playing games, it never happens when I'm doing anything else.
This started happening roughly 2 weeks ago. And eventually one morning(3 days before writing this) my PC just BSOD 10 seconds after starting it and it kept going, I couldn't use my PC outside of safe mode. Before the PC got that hapened, I tried the usual "sfc /scannow" and diskcheck, no issues there. I reinstalled my GPU driver because most people were saying that it's most likely a GPU driver issue since it only happened in games, that did nothing.
Since I couldn't find any fix for this and I couldn't start my PC without it crashing. I reinstalled the PC the first time, keeping some of my files, thinking it was a driver issue, that didn't help. After 2 hrs of reinstalling my PC crashed instantly after the reinstalling was done. So I [redacted] reinstalled it again and this time I deleted all of my files, except some photos and important files that I kept in my D drive. That seemed to fix the issue, so I started redownloading all the stuff I was missing and thought it ended there.
However today I decided for the first time to play the game that was often crashing before, and like 30 minutes after playing I get the same BSOD that happened before, same DRIVER_IRQL issue. I have no idea what to do now and I'm really hoping it's not my GPU which is dying, I have a GTX 1080 and really can't afford to buy a new one right now. The GPU seems to work perfectly fine, I never have any FPS drops in games, my screen doesn't flicker or do anything weird or glitchy. I'm completely lost on what to try now.
Other BSOD messages I got were:
SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGE_AREA
Also had an error message which said "iastorac.sys failed" (This was after the PC BSOD's on startup)
DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION
