I recently upgraded from a 3060 to a 9070 XT, but things have been pretty rough since the swap. I've already tried a lot of troubleshooting steps including removing all overclocks, forcing PCIe to Gen 4, reseating the GPU, and reinstalling drivers. I also turned antilag off, switched between newer and older drivers, toggled Resizable BAR, and even got a new power supply. I'm experiencing crashes mainly in Cyberpunk 2077 and Battlefield 6, although games like Valorant seem to run fine. My setup features a 9070 XT Red Devil paired with a 1000W PSU, an AMD 9800X3D, and 32GB of DDR5 RAM, which I had previously overclocked but have returned to stock settings to troubleshoot. I'm feeling a bit stuck as I feel like I've covered the basics. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried switching the GPU slot from PCI-E 5.0 to PCI-E 4.0? I had a similar issue, and going down to 4.0 made everything stable again. Honestly, the performance difference between 5.0 and 4.0 isn't noticeable for most setups.
I’ve actually gone through all the PCIe generations and nothing seemed to help. I’ve done extensive testing, and I really doubt any other part of my system is unstable.
