Evening all,
Apologies I am going to rant a bit to give a bit of context feel free to skip ahead where I will give full system details along with issues and troubleshooting steps I've taken and links to my minidump files. Anyway, context:
I have over the last few weeks started to collect some new parts to upgrade/downsize my case to a MFF Lian Li A3 build.
I decided I was going to take the opportunity to updgrade to AM5 using some of my existing components but a fair few brand new ones.
The System:
As the title eludes to I am constantly (sometimes it will wait an hour, some time 5mins in booting up) getting blackscreens then restarts, no BSOD that I see. Sometimes it shows up in Event Viewer and nvlddmkm.sys error sometimes just bug report with the dump file that does seem to point to the nvlddmkm.sys error.
This error is very well documented and I have literally spent the last 5 days reading forums, reddit, videos on it and feel like I could tell anyone what to do to fix this erro but for me it just wont work.
I have done all the advised usual steps. DDU in safe mode, clean driver installs etc, disabling auto driver updates when reloading in etc. No luck. I have changed power settings. I have given full auth to user accounts on teh actual file in sys32. All the things everyone says should fix it. Even changing some setting ins MSI afterburner etc including slightly downclocking the 3090 , this was a stab in the dark though as again it is 100% fine in my AM4 system and no changed between the systems cooling wise.
Done it all, I've done full clean windows installs. Literally installed nothing else really to really give this the best shot. No luck.
This all got me thinking it was hardware: So to note:
So hardware wise I have either changed or been able to test in another system everything except the RAM and NVME and I keep coming back to this being hardware somewhere as with either clean windows installs or following all the other advice out there ( such as clean gpu driver etc with ddu) I've covered all the 'software' issues.
Oh and regarding CPU - nothign obvious with a problem there, temps are perfect, never get above 60c really when gaming (for the brief periods I can) so seems to cooled fine, nothing on a phsyical inspection such a bent pins etc on the board.
I have some other RAM turning up tomorrow to give it a try/rule it out and I have another NVME I can try tomorrow as well but just getting so hung up on this can someone give me a sense check and look at my dump files to make sure I'm not missing any other glaring issue?
Oh and I've also tried the usual as well, not running PBO, disabling igpu, running ram at stock speeds/not using expo, updating bios etc. also completely rebuilt the system like 3 times, ensuring everything seated/connected properly.

Thank you!

I decided I was going to take the opportunity to updgrade to AM5 using some of my existing components but a fair few brand new ones.
The System:
- CPU: 7800x3d (new)
- Motherboard: Asrock B650M Pro RS (new)
- 3090 FE (my existing GPU that I have had since launch)
- RAM: CORSAIR VENGENCE DDR5 32GB (2X16GB) DDR45 , 6000MHZ CL30
NVME: SAMSUNG 980 2TB (from old system but with fresh windows install) - PSU: Thermatake Toughpower SFX1000 ATX 3.1 Platinum (new)
The Issue:

This all got me thinking it was hardware: So to note:
- The 3090 works fine in my old AM4 system - tested this continues to be fine.
- PSU - When I first started having issues and not looking into the dump files i thought this was the culprit. the way it would reset without a bsod and nothign in event viewer, i thought it was a PSU issue. Well got a replacement PSU , still happens. Used my Corsair HX1000 from all old systems, still happens. So ruled out PSU being the issue.
- Motherboard - thought that was the issue but tried on both this MB and a Gigabyte board. Still happens.
- NVME - maybe?? I have used it both as. fresh install and also just for fun as a clone of my other sytems main drive. Still happens.
- RAM: run memetests with no problems - have tried just one stick of ram, still happens.
So hardware wise I have either changed or been able to test in another system everything except the RAM and NVME and I keep coming back to this being hardware somewhere as with either clean windows installs or following all the other advice out there ( such as clean gpu driver etc with ddu) I've covered all the 'software' issues.
