I've not changed anything hardware wise for a while (Since upgrading to a 3080Ti some time last year).
In the last couple of months I've been getting increasing numbers of crashes during games. Screen goes blank, and I can hear the game. Discord disconnects and I can't interact with anything so it's definitely hanging.
I've updated all of my drivers, and Windows 11 Pro OS.
I've also run sfc /scannow
It's definitely DWM.exe which is crashing (Windows Desktop Manager), which I can't disable any more in Windows 11. I know my PSU is fairly old, and I'm wondering if it's caused by power instability (Corsair 1200Ax series).
My rails currently look like this:
I think they look a little on the low side, but I'm not certain.
Could it be this? Or am I looking in the wrong place?
