My pc will restart when playing/opening some games, I can play Overwatch, Modern warfare, Valorant fine but if I am to open basically any other games it will restart my pc, Forza, BDO, Outriders. I have noticed on Forza my CPU usage goes to 100% and then my pc will just restart. Yesterday I was able to play BDO without it restating my pc after I changed the graphics time out following this post-https://www.reddit.com/r/radeon/comments/k46h7b/rx6800_crashes_a_lot/ But today it does the same again.

My specs:

Sapphire Radeon RX 6800 Pulse 16GB GDDR6

Asus ROG Strix B550-E Gaming (AMD AM4) B550 ATX Motherboard

Corsair RM Series RM750 750W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply

Noctua NH-D15 Chromax Pure Black CPU Cooler with Dual 140m Fans

AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Six Core 4.6GHz (Socket AM4) Processor

Phanteks Eclipse P400 Air Midi Tower DRGB Case

Sorry to hear about your issues, as a start you could try using radeon chill to reduce the fps in the games that crash to lower the load on the system, although it should be stable without this. Second you could disable the xmp on the memory when playing the games that crash. You could check the bios to see if there is a later one which increases stability.
