BSOD when handling higher loads

[hunter.w9]

Hi everyone

I recently built my new computer a little less than 3 months ago. I automatically found a problem where my computer would get a BSOD when handling higher loads. Until now, this hasn't been a problem, but I am now looking at getting a new monitor  with better resolution and refresh rate and want my fps to keep up with the monitor refresh rate.

I started troubleshooting and think I narrowed the problem down to my gpu. I am not 100% sure about this because I do not know much about computers, but I think I am right. Whenever it blue screens, I get the Driver IRQl not less than or equal error. I have tried everything I have found online but nothing seems to work. I have this problem on every game I play if my gpu usage gets too high, but only sometimes. I also have a problem with my gpu where it almost always has a load around 99%. I uninstalled and reinstalled drivers but that didn't help either.

I don't know much about computers besides specs and graphics settings so I'm completely lost here.
