Hello!

About 2 months ago, I built my new PC. Sadly, very quickly, I started experiencing random freezes that always ended with the PC restarting whenever I used it with my 7900 installed. After checking the event viewer, I saw that with every restart, the event viewer registered a kernel error 41(63). I tried many things, such as reinstalling drivers, updating everything I could, reinstalling Windows, turning off fast boot, turning off and on XMP, or even changing my PSU.

The only thing that seemed to work was changing my GPU. However, at one point, I observed that even with my 7900, the problem stops if I don't install AMD drivers. Even more, if I download GPU drivers through Windows Update, everything works, and no kernel errors appear. I tried contacting AMD, but they basically told me to reinstall everything and update the BIOS, so I guess I won't get any help from them so I hope I can get some help here.

::I forgot to mention but kernels only appear when pc is in idle, never when i play games or use apps that put pc under heavy load::

My specs:

MOBO:

CPU: Ryzen 7 7800x3D
