Ive had 3 crashes when watching videos on YT and also while watching movies in a media player.
When i first set up the system i plugged into the onboard AMD graphics and then once it was up and running i installed an Asus 4070 and everything seemed ok after stressing tests etc, but then the 3 random crashed occurred.
I had a look at device manager and noticed that i had an AMD graphics driver installed as well as a Geforce driver so i uninstalled the AMD driver and not had a crash since. Im not sure ive resolved the problem but does this sound like it might be the cause of my video playback crashing my system?

2 different brand of drivers can cause problems, if it's not crashing anymore then post back if it does.
