PT is also using a method that doesn't really get high yields of iron by collecting iron bacteria from a nearby river. You'll probably find a higher concentration of iron in an ore, but this much will still not yield too much if it is iron bearing. It looks kinda like limonite which is iron bearing but I'm no geologist so I can't be the one to verify.

The straightness of the bananas aren't the issue, it's the waste created by throwing out perfectly good bananas for not being purportedly aesthetically pleasing enough.

Nobody is forcing you to buy a straight banana, but you are being forced to have your only banana option be curved.

Update on this since it's been a while:

The problem was somewhere along the lines of how c states interacts with the CPU. I disabled C states and the locking up issue stopped. I can't imagine that it's going to impact my power bill too much but at least the PC works now.

PSU should be able to handle it, it's an 850 watt and the calculator says I should be hovering around 560 watts with no over clocking.

Memory test from windows said the cards were fine.

GPU heat is around 35C

CPU heat maxed out around 45C

In my most embarrassing moment here, the GPU being bad was how a redditor interpreted the error as reading this language is far above my pay grade and I trusted reddit for that part.

However that's why I'm here too, to get more thoughts from a community that I've known to be more tech savvy than not. It seems that it's pointing towards a CPU issue more than a GPU issue, but I also have a lot more tests to run thanks to the advice I've been given here. I thought I was at a dead end really but I should be able to get to a better conclusion after using these troubleshooting methods.

What are the conditions at the time of the crash? Are you actively using it? Is the screen blank, or frozen showing the last activity? Does this occur every time the computer is on, or intermittently? Does it happen in both Windows and Linux? Does it happen if you boot a live OS and leave that running for awhile? Have you done any SMART checks?

Both when actively using it and leaving it idle when I'm away doing anything else.

The screen freezes the last shown image on it.

Every time the computer is on it will eventually freeze.

Yes both windows and Linux.

Haven't tried booting a live OS.

It's likely not an SSD issue because I have booted from two different ssds.

Just to further clarify the symptoms, is it true that the following all appear to stop working at the same time?

Video out

Audio out

Mouse in

Keyboard in

Yes all of these stop working simultaneously.

Mouse and keyboard are both wired connections. And are still receiving power after the crash.

Headphones are wireless.

My next test is booting with no GPU and as barebones as possible, but as others have pointed out in the comments here it seems like it's more of a CPU issue than not based on the error thrown, but this will at least give solid evidence of that being the case.

I also have to run OCCT as others have pointed out as well. Hopefully those tests aren't interrupted by the crash.

To my uninitiated understanding of advanced setups for computers, is there any recommended documentation for setting up the correct voltages for specific parts that isn't just running the automatic settings? I was under the impression that it was fairly plug and play so if the voltages are wrong from the get go then that might significantly contribute to the problem.

Sorry about the semantics of the issue. It was my regurgitation of what I looked up and what seemed to fit the issue the best rather than "crash" which seems too vague.

I'll try using the igpu or a really old GPU since those are all I have on hand. Stress isn't really needed since it locks up while idle. Temps are fine and it just crashes regardless of what I'm doing. I've had it crash when I run a command on the terminal; I've had it crash when I open Firefox; I've had it crash when it's hibernating.

The problem is that they're removing analogue redundancies. Sure gps can tell them where they are and where to go, but what if that computer breaks down at sea, or something happens to the service and they can get an accurate update in a meaningful amount of time? When things break, we can always fall back on the redundancy in place, but when those are removed, then sailors are SOL when something stops working.
