Windows 10: Ethernet and most USBs crash after playing games for a while, need to restart to fix

[COLOR=rgba0, 0, 0, 1]Hello, I am working on fixing my PC MSI B450 GAMING PLUS MAX, AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core Processor, RTX 2070 Super, 16gb ram, [/COLOR]

[COLOR=rgba0, 0, 0, 1]The network drivers Realtek PCIe GbE Family Controller and one of the two AMD USB 3.10 eXtensible Host Controller crash when the GPU has been running for a while, tested using a benchmark, as well as during a game. To fix this they must be uninstalled fully from device manager and the PC restarted.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=rgba0, 0, 0, 1]I know the GPU is triggering this, as it does not occur unless the GPU has been running hard e.g. during a benchmark, or playing games like Doom Eternal, Apex Legends, Etc.. I have tried reinstalling the GPU drivers to see if this fixes it, as well as checking if BIOS and other drivers are up to date, but do not know where to go from here as I haven't found any other people with this issue.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=rgba0, 0, 0, 1]Ive flagged this as software as I assumed it probably is, but am not 100% sure[/COLOR]

[COLOR=rgba0, 0, 0, 1]Does anyone have any ideas? thanks in advance.[/COLOR]

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
