Oh I see... Well my GPU does have a few years on it, still working fine (before being interruped lol). No I put the GPU directly in PCIE slot (First as MOBO manual says).
I hope it's not the CPU, I was very careful placing it in its slot. I did had to change the thermal paste one time. Come to think about it I am getting jumpy CPU temp when I check temp in BIOS. Can go from 29c to 40-45c, jumps around a bit. Perhaps I got to check that out, maybe clean and apply fresh paste again. Best way is one "dot" in the center of CPU, right? If no success I guess I got to check piece by piece, ugh.. What a hassle.

yea one dot is enough but also check the pins to be sure it isn’t a faulty pin.*

The GPU might be clogged with dust buy a can of air and clear out the fins on the cooling plate if you have some experience I would replace the thermal paste of the GPU and replace the thermal pads as well.

So completely change the thermal paste?

I clean pretty much once every week. I should maybe be more thoroughly when cleaning the GPU. So completely change the thermal paste? I've had people saying I should not do that as it can cause problems or make it worse. But I guess I could give it a try. Thanks.

So I reinstalled Windows 10 again, on my SSD. I first removed the HDD. Installed Windows, updated to the latest although I did not install the "optional update" (KB4522355), I am leaving that so sit there. I let windows install the drivers, I only updated the nVIDIA drivers as well as the Chipset drivers. I then plugged in my HDD, completely format HDD. Installed Ubisoft and Ghost Recon Breakpoint (On my SSD). And I've now been playing for 6 actively hours without any problem at all. No freeze, no stutter, nothing. Maybe this could be because I didn't unplug the HDD before installing windows earlier? Or maybe it's because I installed "Games for windows" on my HDD? Those games are a complete cluster from what I saw on the HDD, folders all over and folders/files I cannot enter. Or maybe it was just that simple that I didn't unplug the HDD before installing Windows? I do not know. Or maybe it is just the update that I am not installing (KB4522355)? So many things that can cause this.
On another note, ASUS HQ sent me a modified BIOS "Patch" for me. I'll save that one for later if I get this issue again. But for now it does seem to work completely fine!
PC seems to run super fast now compared to earlier.
I'll make a new post if things starts to mess up again. But for now, big thank you to you all! You gave me plenty of new info and I've learned a thing or two from you guy. So thank you once again!
For now, consider this issue SOLVED!
Thanks ❤️
