PC freezing while at gaming

Hello everyone... So, over the last few weeks my PC has been feezing everytime a play some games. Grid 2019, BF5, Dirt 4, Dirt Rally 2.0, well... So I decided to run P95 with FurMark and without FurMark.

Results:
Without Furmark everything is ok... With Furmark the PC will freeze just like anygame. (The only ones that don't freeze are league of legends and CS:GO)

 

Conclusion: GPU temps high... My GTX 1080 TURBO OC II from Gigabyte was under 86ºC when the pc has frozen and low framerates and clock (1400 almost 1300 Mhz).

 

Decision: I opened the GPU to clean it up and the thermalpads were kinda full of dark dust. I'm getting new ones tomorrow. Right now I'm usung iGPU.

 

So, what happened here? Is the gpu dying? or is the PSU that is causing it?

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D; Mobo: Asus ROG Crosshair Hero X670E; RAM: Team Group T-Force 2x16GB (32GB) DDR5 @ 6000MHz CL38; GPU: RTX 4080 - ZOTAC GAMING AMP Extreme AIRO; Case: NZXT H7 Flow; Storage: Kingston KC3000 1TB + Adata Legend 900 2TB; Cooling: Cooler Master PL360; PSU: Corsair HX 1200
