this has been going on for awhile now, my pc will crash on certain games like, cs2, ark ascended, the last of us, cyberpunk (games which worked at one point) and many others but then not on other graphically demanding games like reddead2 or witcher 3 with settings maxed. At first i thought it was my gpu (3070 at the time) was dying because i was getting out of video memory pop ups as well as a weird display issue where after being asleep and woken up my monitor would seem glitchy and frozen but it would go away after 5 or so minutes, so i upgraded to the 4080 and problems persist.
ive tried:
using ddu and reinstalling my gpu driver
reinstalling windows
memtest86
intel processor diag tool
honestly so lost on trying to pinpoint the issue. I am thinking about going to buy 4 new sticks of ram and seeing if that fixes anything.
