Hello , I have had some problems as of late with my computer , in particular it seems that my graphics card began to malfunction.
First of all system specs briefly:
Ryzen 3600x processor
Tomahawk b450m motherboard
16gb ddr4-3200 (running at the xmp 3200 setting , think i tried to run it stock btw and same problem)
Corsair CX 650m psu bronze rated
1tb nvme (wd black) and 1tb ssd i think SK Hynix brand.
The first sign of a problem occured when I installed a game called fifa online 4 (which is like a generic free version of fifa).
The game crashed I think if I am not mistaking with a Unreal Engine error ( I didn't think anything of it at the time since a buddy of mine told me the game was full of bugs and ran poorly) so I thought maybe the instance is in that one game. Then one time I was live on twitch and I had seemingly some GPU artifacts in hearthstone and I even clipped it here ( you can have a look). https://www.twitch.tv/magicnut/clip/InquisitiveTrappedStapleNerfRedBlaster-7358_ogPxTcLwPqE
However I didn't have those particular artifacts again or any artifacts for that matter in hearthstone.
I ignored the issue again and thought maybe it was a one time thing.
But then a few (maybe 2-3 months) ago I bought F1 Manager 2022. And that game CONSTANTLY crashed with a Unreal engine error.
I have wrote about the issue on the forum and that is the first time it hit me this card might be on its last legs after a lad told me this nature of a error may well be hardware related.

Other games ran fine and the time (namely PUBG , world of tanks , football manager ) and anything else I played.
However last week I started having constant crashes in world of tanks with the drivers crashing like this : View: https://imgur.com/a/TwnO99o
I tried numerous ideas to try to resolve the issue such as:
Removing my old drivers with DDU and installing latest nvidia drivers.
Reinstalling all the mentioned games and installing them on the second harddrive , verifying file integrity etc.
Running my ram without xmp at stock I think ddr4 2666 speeds.
Reseating the graphics card in the pci-e slot and even putting it in the other pci-e slot and also connecting it to a different power supply cable.
Checking system file integrity with the sfc /scannow command (as suggested in some forum). etc.
BTW worth mentioning the first time i tried to seat the card in the second pci-e slot it went with a black screen after it booted into windows (the first few seconds there was video but it then blacked out). I then again reinstalled my drivers with DDU cleanly and it booted . Recently it black screened briefly one time even in the first pci-e slot though it then recovered and seemingly ran fine afterwards.
I am so convinced the card is the source of the problem that I already ordered a new card btw on amazon as a replacement but I'd like to get a second opinion here just in case (I'll just return the card if this one can somehow be rejuvenated but I doubt it).
Thanks.

Please help , constant game crashes due to "d3d device being lost" with unreal engine crashdump
Hello , I have bought the game on steam and upon trying to play it I endlessly encounter crashdumps with a message something along the line of this: I had sent the crash dump in but I wasn't able to find any kind of solution or information regarding it. I have no other games crashing or...
