Question Gradual System deterioration resulting in BSODs and event viewer logs that make no sense.

[Unive89]

Before 8/31/23 I experienced not a single BSOD or crash. No new software, no new hardware, no new updates to any software. (Stable new build ran for months)
OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Home
Version 10.0.19045 Build 19045
System Manufacturer ASRock
System Model Z790 Pro RS
Processor 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-13900K, 3000 Mhz, 24 Core(s), 32 Logical Processor(s)
GPU Nivida 4080
32 GB of ram - 2x 16GB DDR5
PSU: 1000 Watt Corsair (New)

This started with Skyrim, then GTA5 singleplayer, then eve online. I would experience a crash to desktop from skyrim within 2 minutes of making a new game. (No mods, reinstalled 4x, same issue.)
I played GTA5 single player for 20+ hours then out of no where it began crashing me to desktop making it unplayable. Out of frustration I uninstalled them both and gave up.
Then Eve online which ive put thousands of hours into, and hundreds of hours into it on this current brand new PC setup with absolutely no issues.

Things that I have done to try and fix this:

1. New Hard drive
2. New PSU
3. Swapped ram sticks from 2 to 1 configuration and tried both sticks by themselves (No Changes)
4. Reinstalled Clean install of windows 4x, three times on the original hard drive and once on the new hard drive (All windows updates, All Driver Updates, And GPU driver) Clean install that only included eve online, same results.
5. Every single generic Windows powershell and command prompt line that anyone tells you to use to restore image health, chkdsk, memdiag, if you can think of it ive already tried it.
6. All Memory tests including Memtest86 came back 100%
7. Prime95 ran for an hour and did not crash or BSOD
8. Furmark stress tested GPU for half an hour with no crash or BSOD
9. Cmos Reset
10. Bios defaults

List of BSOD's that I have encountered:
KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
APC Index Mismatch x3
System service exception x1
IRQL_NOT_GREATER_OR_EQUAL x3.

I can trigger these BSOD's at will by simply starting Eve Online and letting it run for approximately 5-10 minutes, the more I actively do in the game increases the rate and frequency at which I encouter a BSOD. If I idle desktop, I will not BSOD.

Does it crash if you remove the gpu and connect to the igp?

I'm gonna try that when I get off work, reluctantly. I really hope it's not the GPU.

What CPU cooler do you have? The 13th gen Intel CPUs run very hot.

Those corrected hardware error messages are significant.

Well I really hate to admit this, but it seems as if it is the GPU. Dealing with the RMA process for a 1200+ dollar video card is going to suck I am sure. Basically going to be out a PC for an ungodly amount of time. I really pushed it, trying everything to make it crash, hoping it would so that I could boil it down to a motherboard.

It seems as if it's the GPU eitherway. Could not replicate and BSODs or application crashes when I was in integrated graphics.
