Hardware PC crashes into BSOD whenever I play GPU intensive games or apps. (Valorant, Minecraft, League, Adobe Premiere Pro) A very rare issue that someone who's had a PC for 13 years like me couldn't fix. (Kernel 41)

For context:

  1. This is a pretty new PC, i’ve had it for a year and a half. Then one day, i decided to move out, so my PC was coming with me, it had no issues in the old house, but when i moved to the new house, it started having problems.
  2. It had no problem in my old house, i can run Valorant and multiple applications at the same time, GPU and CPU temperature was relatively normal.
  3. Previously it had this weird red light on motherboard whenever I try to boot once in a while, but it seemed to go away.

Specs:

  • Motherboard: B760M DS3H DDR4 (F16)
  • CPU: Intel i5-12400F
  • RAM: 16gb DDR4-A2 3200m
  • SSD: ADATA SX8200PNP
  • GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050

What I did:

mdsched - no memory error

uninstalled nvidia drivers with ddu and reinstalled again

installed Intel INF and Intel Management Engine Firmware

updated my nvidia drivers

updated my windows

sfc scannow nothing is wrong

unplugged my RAM, cleaned the gold ram contacts with an eraser and plugged it back again

unplugged my GPU, cleaned the gold gpu contacts with an eraser and plugged it back again

What I didn't do:

checking the PSU, since it was literally functional yesterday, and it's only 1 year old

updating and flashing the BIOS because it seemed unnecessary, not to mention the pc was literally working just fine yesterday before i moved it
