For the last 3 months or so I have been battling a very odd issue that I can't seem to fix. I'd like to avoid a full Windows reinstall, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to head down that path. Around 3-4PM nearly every day (not always, but more often than not) after having me PC running all day, I run into some sort of display crashing. What this entails is slightly different each day, but for the most part its similar. The most common thing I have an issue with is that my internet browser will crash. Sometimes the whole window turns black and I'm forced to close it. Other times it just randomly closes itself. Sometimes the browser will freeze up for a second and then I get this very weird artifacting where quadrants of the browser window get scrambled like a slide puzzle. I also have had game crashes as a result of this issue. A lot of times i have a crash, reboot my system, and I'm good for awhile. But a few times I had very consistent crashes with Escape From Tarkov (screen went black, still had sound). Occasionally I will have a display crash where my entire screen becomes black and it never returns until I reboot. And just the other day I had a crash where things almost turned into slow motion, and everytime I'd move my mouse I would get a weird noise out of my speakers. I always have to reboot my system after any of these issues began or they will persist.

 

I always have a browser open with multiple tabs. Ive tried moving from Chrome to Mozilla with no positive results.

Alot of the time I'll have Runelite open in the background when this happens. In the past this will crash too, but lately it is resilient through the crashes.

Steam windows (Library, Friends, Chat, etc.) will typically turn entirely black and unusable.

Often Discord will crash as well if open.

 

I originally had the following errors until I completely wiped out any Asus software. Now I get no errors. I have run a MemTest with positive results. I have tried using DDU to clean up my GPU drivers and reinstall. I've updated to the latest bios. I've ensure my memory timings are accurate. I'm not really sure what to do besides wiping my OS, but I'd like to avoid that.
