Random PC restarts when playing
Playing on an Acer Nitro 5 and ultra performance DLSS mode because I value framerate more than texture definition. The game behaves normally sometimes for hours. Other times, the second or third match will freeze my PC for a few senconds and restart it without even a blue screen of death.

Performance doesn't dip or anything during gameplay, it just randomly restarts my pc. Drivers are updated and BIOS is too. Anyone else had this issue?

Every time I close or open my electric window blinds my monitor shuts off and starts again but only in this games my entire pc restarts. So maybe its something like that. (I did not read your post :P)

turn off XMP or EXPO in the bios.

Sounds like your PC is overheating and shutting down.

Game runs hot as ♥♥♥♥.

This game is extremely unoptimized, and I feel like it's suffering from a memory leak. It did the same thing to me, restarted my pc, quickly checked my GPU temp and it was normal.

completely unsure whether or not it could even help, but for me the fix was limiting the voltage output to my CPU to be just 1v under what the max was (in the BIOS"). instantly stopped the issue and i've been running strong for months.

Is this related to the easy anti-cheat?
I read somewhere that this could cause the restart too, something in the anti-cheat software acting up.
I also installed a few optional cummulative windows updates that were pending and it hasn't happened anymore (in 3 days). Maybe it was something in my windows version, maybe it was something that was faulty and was overwritten by these updates. Still need to test more by playing.
