PC FREEZING/CRASHING
Aloha so my PC keeps crashing/ freezing and restarting. i may get a minute or two out of it before it freezes, and becomes unresponsive. these are my current specs i am running.
•AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 4.2 GHz,
•NVIDIA RTX 4080,
•1TB NVME Gen4 SSD,
•32GB DDR5 RAM RGB,
•1000W Gold PCIE 5.0 PSU,
•360mm AIO,
•11AC Wi-Fi,
lWindows 11 Home 64-bit
not sure if any of that helps. i haven't done much as far aside from trying a file cleanup through the commands.
any help will be greatly appreciated!

Completely remove the current Nvidia device driver using the widely available free DDU utility, then restart your PC and go to the Nvidia website to download and install a slightly older version of the Nvidia device driver.
A slightly older version of that driver is more stable than the latest version.

Please check to see if your PC is producing any minidump files, I will check those to see if they provide any insight into a potential cause of the system crashes.
Open Windows File Explorer.
Navigate to C:\Windows\Minidump
Copy any minidump files onto your Desktop, then zip those up.
Upload the zip file to the Cloud (OneDrive, DropBox... etc.), then choose to share those and get a share link.
Then post the link here to the zip file, so we can take a look for you.
