ok so if it happens across multiple drivers and games, test the hardware: reseat the card, check the PCIe power connectors, and try a stress test with temps logged. A card that only fails when warm is a classic pattern.
Remove any GPU overclock and memory overclock. Device reomved errors are very sensitive to VRAM instability. If you used a tuning tool, reset it to defaults and also check that no profile reaplpies at startup.

nah tbh 100% active time with nothing happening can also be a failing drive even if SMART looks fine at first. keep the backup current. just my 2 cents DNS. its always DNS
