Hi folks!
I need help. I'm swamped and have barely any time on my hands, so I can't troubleshoot as I use to. I thought someone here might bring light to what's wrong so I can optimize what to actually look for.
Here's the problem
When I play GPU-heavy games, they "crash". Depending on the game, it acts a bit differently. Games such as F1, Hots, Overwatch and COD: Warzone freeze up for one second and then the program just ends. I receive an error message that says roughly "Rendering device not found".
Some other games, as World of Warcraft and Rocket League, freeze up 5 seconds, disappears for 5 seconds and then reappears. It's like an uncontrolled timed force tab down.
My monitors don't turn off or lose signal, and I can immediately use software other than what crashed. These errors occur differently for each game, but roughly every 5 minutes.
When I stress-test my GPU, it doesn't crash.
Here's my setup and when it started to happen
Problems started when I got my G7 Odyssey. I used to run two monitors, the ASUS and the SyncMaster, but got the G7 and aimed for a triple setup. I realized quite quickly (but not right away) that some of the heaviest games crashed, such as F1 and Warzone. I then disconnected my ASUS and it was fine for some days.

Here's what I've tested
I could have sworn this was an issue with my memory, but I can't find it.
- MemTest on both RAM-sticks, no errors.
- Uninstalled and reinstalled graphic drivers and everything related to NVIDIA several times.
- Reset clock values.
- Updated BIOS.
- Made sure every power cable is thoroughly connected.
