Have the current drivers from nvidia (460.79) yet new PC build with RTX 3070 is crashing on heavily load. Has only crashed once when playing rocket league for over 20 hours and didn't crash on Red Dead 2. However on cyberpunk and on need for speed: heat I'm getting frequent crashes.

Here's what I tried:
  • Doing clean reinstall of recent drivers
  • under clocking and overclocking by 100Mhz in MSI afterburner
  • Tried updating windows to newest version
  • Tried updating BIOS to most recent version (seems like this almost made things worse...)
On monitoring the performance the GPU will spike to 100% under 3D usage then go to zero.

cyberpunk also creates some files on crash, I've included a picture of those, let me know which ones should be helpful. I couldn't decipher them.

I've also included picture of my system specs. I think temps are fine as the highest I've seen is 71c for the GPU.

any advice on next steps would be greatly appreciated! :)👍
