I'm facing a recurring problem where my system crashes with a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR (BSOD) while I'm running OCCT power or GPU tests, as well as during demanding games like RDR2 and Helldivers 2. The crashes often occur within just 2-3 minutes of load, sometimes resulting in a hard reboot or a freeze followed by a 'No bootable drive' error until I reboot again. I've noticed that the Power Reporting Deviation in HWiNFO drops to around 85% or lower during these intense sessions. I can run CPU-only and memory stress tests without any issues, and this problem persists even when using BIOS defaults. Here's a quick rundown of my specs: Ryzen 5 5600X, GALAX RTX 3060 Ti, Gigabyte B550M DS3H motherboard, 16GB RAM, Cooler Master MWE 750 Bronze PSU, NVMe boot drive, and a secondary SSD. I've already tried resetting the BIOS, disabling PBO, manually setting a safe CPU voltage, downclocking the RAM, using DDU to clean the GPU driver, and checking the PSU voltages, which seem fine during normal usage but crash under heavy GPU or combined load. Any ideas on what's going wrong?

Since you’re not generating any dump files, I recommend running a tool that gathers logs and system information from Windows. This could provide insight into what's going wrong.
Are you getting any dump files when a BSOD occurs? That's crucial for figuring out what's causing the crashes.
It sounds like you need to check for dump files, which are essential for analyzing BSODs. If you can boot into Windows, try looking in C:WindowsMinidump for any dump files after a crash. You can zip those files and upload them to a file sharing site like catbox.moe or mediafire.com. If you don’t find any, follow a guide to configure Windows to create Small Memory Dumps instead, so you can gather more data for better analysis.
