Recently for the past week or so my PC has been crashing games to desktop but only recent ones (Starfield, Remnant 2, Everspace 2, etc.). I can play games like Everspace or FC3 just fine but as soon as I try any of my new library they crash in a min or couple of seconds. The UE games show a 'DXGIERROR_ DEVICE HUNG' in the crash logs and with task manager open I can see the GPU spikes from like 30% usage to 100% during the freeze and subsequent crash. I looked online and apparently this is TDR or smth but does that mean that my GPU is dying?
I've removed the RAM and GPU, blown them off and reseated and everything is secure and plugged in. If it helps i recently upgraded my PSU, mobo and CPU, so my RAM and GPU is from my previous setup but it worked just fine there and I didn't drop or bend or otherwise damage them when moving over. Everything was working fine until last week when Starfield started crashing only a few seconds in game. looked it up and apparently it was an issue with the new update so I gave up but noted in the crash logs it referenced issues with the GPU too. I only really connected the two when Remnant and Everspace 2 crash within a minute of booting up (I can't even make a character in the former) and HSR now is freezing and crashing too despite working completely fine before. Now the PC is freezing as well a min or so after the game crashes.
Is there anything I can do or try? I don't have a spare graphics card to try and see if the RAM is acting up and my PSU is 850W so there should be more than enough power left over. I'm not overlocking GPU or CPU and its not factory overclocked. I have XMP turned on and Windows and GPU drivers are up to date. I can't think of anything else that might be relevant but if you need anything else please on. I'm at my wits end, I just wanna play silly games on my really expensive piece of silicon.
