PC/LAPTOP reboots while gaming (January/2023)

Has anyone else experienced sudden restarts when starting or while playing a game? I have the impression that the problem is not mainly due to the graphics cards or processors themselves, but that the problem must be because of the updates or patches of AMD Adrenaline Software (which apparently every time they update or put patches ruin their products more), since I have been updating because my computer asks me to the latest version I have not stopped having problems and more problems (This is affirmed by the AMD Bug Report Tool, which in itself is useless because it asks you what the problem is due to or what you think it could be, when the system should be the one who should know what madness. ..

P.S.  I have an Asus Rog Flow X16 computer with a Ryzen 9 6900hs, and I saw that another user today had reboot problems with his graphics card, and I was drawing or we were drawing the conclusion that it is due to patching problems that brought more problems.

You never mentioned your graphics card. Google shows this to be a laptop with a Nvidia RTX 3070. How do you know the processor is causing the problems. The RTX3070 is a great card (my laptop has the RTX 2070) but it runs hot. Fast. Are you using the Nvidia GeoForce Experience to set optimized settings for the game? 

I would run Hardware Monitor while gaming > https://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html 

Check the individual core temperatures / graphics card / but also the 'Performance' reading.

I think you should be asking this at Nvidia-site as you have Nvidia GPU.

Dedicated gaming GPU inside a laptop, producing a lot of heat in a cramped space is and never has been a good idea

Also when using factory built machines, you should download drivers from them unlike with DIY PC's, as those businesses tend to add their own secret sauce to machines and who knows what they did. So maybe just do a factory reset and only use drivers from Asus website.

I had to do a double take on this one, but Why is he running AMD Adrenalin on an NVIDIA GPU?  Granted the 6900HS GPU driver will have to be installed as the base driver.  But both drivers should be in an ASUS update.

If it ain't broke; don't fix it!
