This game seems to cause my PC to crash a lot. And it's game specific for me. On CS:GO for example, my PC doesn't crash at all, yet with this game it crashes every 20 minutes or so.
Does anyone know why this game causes my PC to crash? It this game CPU or GPU heavy? Does it use a lot of memory or power? What does this game do differently that causes my PC to crash?
I use 4070 Ti and have Ryzen 7 7700X, 64GB DDR5 and motherboard is ASRock B650 PG Lightning. Windows is up to date and so are my drivers.
I'm not very good with PC's so any help will be appreciated. Also, event viewer doesn't give me any useful errors.

just for the record, CS GO runs light as a feather on any system that isnt older than 10 years. any game might as well be a brick compared to csgo.
this game isnt particularly memory heavy
this game tends to use a lot of GPU
this game is only a little taxing on CPU.

I don’t think it really matters what game we’re talking about. It’s more about this game causing my PC to crash while other games don’t. But just as another example, Insurgency Sandstorm also never makes my PC crash.

So after a bit of testing, this: "https://community.amd.com/t5/processors/amd-7600x-am5-7000-platform-instability/td-p/567604" was what seems to help. I went a full 30 minutes without a crash. I cannot confirm if this is a real solution since I haven't had time to test longer times or even a full level yet. I might give an update later.

for what its worth, i have a 7700x, i had general stability issues till i disabled PBO. i am also still feeling things out, had a crash a few weeks ago even with it disabled. i'll file this away, thanks.

So I just played the game for 1 hour and 15 minutes and it hasn't crashed once. Even finished R4A1. So I'm willing to call this issue fixed, although with these things you can never truly know until you forgot that the crashes even happened. Turns out if was never a problem with the game itself, but with my CPU Boost Clock Override. For some reason this game just amplified it.
