Thanks in advance to anyone for trying to help me out
So these past months my pc started to do something weird while gaming like it would "alt tab" out of the game to the desktop randomly n find most programms crashing, game still running tho, so i formatted my pc, it didnt stop but after a week or so i started to get random BSOD while gaming, it would happen at the first 30 minutes n then restart the pc and it would go for hours without crashing, but now it basically crashes mostly in an hour, even when i leave a game idle, throwing different BSOD error codes
I already tried updating my drivers, running chkdsk, loading default BIOS config (never OC my pc tho) also tried using memtest, no errors, used OCCT and ran all the stress tests (up to 60 minutes) and all went ok except the power test which my CPU temps would start at 40° and slowly lower to 25°, then starts to get even lower and way faster giving like 30000 CPU errors n then the test would crash or i would get a BSOD

The BSOD error codes i got:
  • IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
  • ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY
  • FAULTY_HARDWARE_CORRUPTED_PAGE
  • MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
  • PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

System specs:
Motherboard: ROG STRIX X370-F
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 1700
GPU: Geforce Nvidia GTX 1070
RAM: 2x8GB 3000MHz (Running them at 2133hz)
SSD: SanDisk 255GB
HDD: WD 1TB - Toshiba 1TB
PSU: XFX XT 600W

Adding my dump files just in case

Comment: The GPU tweaking driver "iomap64.sys" was found on your system. (AI Suite or GPU Tweak 2)

The nvlddmkm.sys file is a NVIDIA graphics card driver. There are a few things you can do to fix this problem. First off, try a full uninstall using DDU in Safe Mode then re-install the driver (more information). Or try getting the latest version of the driver. Or try one of the 3 most recent drivers released by NVIDIA. Drivers can be found here: http://www.nvidia.com/ or you can allow Windows Update to download the driver for you, which might be a older/better version.

Possible Motherboard page: https://rog.asus.com/us/motherboards/rog-strix/rog-strix-x370-f-gaming-model/
There is a BIOS update available for your system. You are using version 0401, many versions behind the latest which is version 5606. Wait for additional information before deciding to update or not. Important: Verify that I have linked to the correct motherboard. Updating your BIOS can be risky. Never try it when you might lose power (lightning storms, recent power outages, etc).

This information can be used by others to help you. Someone else will post with more information. Please wait for additional answers. Good luck.

2nd Error blames Nvidia drivers, run DDU as suggested above
4th error victim is Nvidia but looking at the dumps it also looks like its self inflicted, so Nvidia was victim and cause.

is this a MSI GPU? Cause this can overclock cards:
Jan 19 2020MsIo64.sysMSI Gaming App driver
I don't think its part of afterburner
it might conflict with Nvidia drivers

since its an Asus motherboard, I expect its also part of Armory crate now too.
maybe update chipset drivers - https://www.amd.com/en/support/chipsets/amd-socket-am4/x370

No i dont think it's an MSI GPU. Anyway i ran DDU and did a rollback to nvidia 471.41 driver and everything seems to be ok, games stopped giving BOSD's but returned to rarely crash for those which put the pc under some stress , checked event viewer and it says that nvwgf2umx.dll is causing them (I think), some people with the same problem said that NVIDIA GeForce Experience is causing it, but i dont really know, will try to update chipset drivers as mentioned just in case.

nvwgf2umx.dll
nv in name gives away who its from. Nvidia D3D10 driver.
Direct3D - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/d3d10/
its GPU for sure, its talking to DirectX

If you keep having problems, run this and use it to remove that MSI driver. if you clear the tick next to its name it will stop it running at startup = https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns

could always install drivers without geforce experience, if that is possible cause.
