GPU Crashing Only While Gaming

In the past few weeks my RX 480 has started to crash when gaming, I'd get a few minutes into a game, and no matter what the game is, the GPU will crash and sometimes it's enough where I have to hard reset the computer, but I've noticed it's not a power issue as it can run under full load on a stress test no problem, it never even blinks when doing it, I've already tried reinstalling Windows and the AMD drivers and it still will only crash if I'm playing a game. It also does not matter if it's on stock speeds or under-clocked, it will still crash in games

Any tips, at this point besides just that the GPU is dying I have no other guesses so anything is welcome

They are both bone stock and I found it was the GPU since when it happens everything keeps working in the background like audio but it will stop displaying anything for a bit and I can hear the fans go back to their default speed for a bit until it can display again and get my fan curve back
