Windows 10: Multiple BSODs when playing games

Hello community.i have multiple BSODs while gaming and it's very random. Most of the time "Kmode exception not handled" or "Pagefault in non page area" which are referencing the kernel! Other times it's "System_Service_Exception" on DXGKRNL.sys which is referencing the DirectXKernelSomething bad has probably happend because one BSOD already mentioned "Misalining IP" - Hope its not a hardware failure.Anyway here a the recent dumps: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/llwd8l364jz7kdy76wwp7/AEutxcDg9VCDTmU7vauz5r4?rlkey=okimftl9ne0n4xhlsv3d8bnv3&st=i5mbk21z&dl=0My system is: AMD Ryzen 5800X3

BSOD When playing games

Hi Jackson,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

Please share the information requested below:

• Does the BSOD occur while playing a particular game?
• Is the game downloaded from Windows Store?

I suggest you to update the Graphic Card drivers by following the steps provided below and check if it helps.

• Press Windows key + X, select Device Manager.
• Expand Display Adapters.
• Right click on the driver and select Update Driver Software.
• Follow the on-screen prompts to update.

BSOD CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT (& Others) On Some Games

Hi,

I've had Multiple BSOD's While playing (High End) games. While playing games such as GTA IV or Player Unknown i have had multiple BSOD, this only seems to happen on games that require a lot of power to run. I have played games like ORI & Blind Forest and Counterstrike for 4 hours+ Without any errors.

Specs:
Intel Core i7 6700K @ 4.00GHz
16.0GB Dual-Channel
ASUS Z170-P
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti
Windows 10 Home 64-bit

BlueScreen View:

Hal.dll
Ntoskrnl.exe
IntelPPm.sys

BSOD Exprienced:

Clock_Watchdog_Timeout
Driver_IRQL_NOT Less or Equal
IRQL_NOT Less or Equal
Kmode_exception_Not_Handled

After contacting my supplier he suggested a number of things to try fixing the issue, and now he has got to the point of suggesting i need a new graphics card. I do however not believe however the issue is solely a faulty graphics card.

I have tried the following fixes:

• Reformatted Windows
• uninstall all Nvidia and Graphics drivers and fresh install
• Installed all updated Drivers
• Memtest (4 Hours)
• GE Benchmark

I presume someone would want to look at the minidumps? Please let me know and i will edit on to this post, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Connor
