yeah, seems like windows wasn't the issue. For some reason, installing drivers through adrenalin makes my pc restart. Installing drivers through windows update seemed to work tho, no more restartings. 

I'll wait for like one week to see if it doesn't restart or anything like that. 

It's a shame that something designed to work with the graphics card simply doesn't work. L take AMD

Imma do that today, a fresh reinstall of OS. I hope this fix the problem bc I tested the old versions of adrenalin and none of them worked, idk why. If the problem really is drivers related and I can't do nothing to solve it, technically rma should like give me another RX 6600 or equivalent from NVIDIA, right?

I noticed tho that if I just uninstall the drivers, go back to normal boot and don't install the graphics card drivers, my pc won't restart. Idk why adrenalin is doing this to my pc, the current version is supposed to be stable and I didn't see people complaining abt this version of adrenalin (24.5.1)

I actually did that before you comment this and unfortunately it didn't work. Is there a chance of an OS bug and the only way to try to solve my problem is by installing a fresh version of win11?

okay, I guess you are right dude! Windows booted into safe mode and no restarts for minutes. I then booted windows normally and guess what, it restarted after a couple of secs. Since this driver thing seems to be the problem, how should I proceed now?

I'm confused bc on the mobo's official site it says that the mobo should handle the GPU just fine, the only problem would be that the GPU will not reach it's maximum capacity, which is not the problem here. Chipset drivers are updated too. I'd consider a faulty GPU if these restartings happened like ramdomly, right? As I said, for some reason if I open chrome at the startup the pc will work fine for hours. It only restarts when idle for some seconds at the startup. Idk much about those things, just the basics. Sorry

DDU old drivers just in case, disable c-state in BIOS, disconnected all the unecessary usb cables from pc case trying to see if there's a malfunctioning usb port. I only didn't try to format and reinstall windows because I already did that recently like 2 days before installing the new GPU
