Setup: Ryzen 5 5600x, 6800xt, windows 10, I built it myself 1.5 years ago
The issue started showing up about a month ago, I updated and factory installed the driver but not solved.
The computer freezes randomly and semi-regularly (every 3h~ avg) when I play games (or sometimes just browsing). I initially just pressed the restart button, but it got more regular and has ruined a few games/disrupted a few meetings. When the computer freezes, the RGB breathing effect in my case also freezes, which suggests that it's not the graphics card but the CPU.Considering replacing the CPU, but I want to see if anyone here knows a solution to this problem.
Updates:
1. I tried clean boot, did not help with this issue
2. Upgraded to windows 11, which seemed to reduce the frequency of this happening, but it is still there. So the problem is at least partially software
3. Upgraded to the latest graphics card driver
4. Upgraded CPU to Ryzen 5700G.
Additional observation:
1. In AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition Version
-> Performance -> Tuning: CPU tuning disappeared after this problem occurring
-> Metrics: All CPU metrics are not showing except utilization
Reinstalling the driver shows the CPU correctly again
