Question PC crashes for a second and displays can't recover

[Drav]

So i recently got an issue with some crashes.
After playing like 15-20 mins, PC crashes for a second and display freezes until I restart windows. Everything runs as smooth as before but the only issue I got is that it crashes often like that.

Usually happens on bigger games like gta and etc. It started to happen after the latest windows update (KB5004237).
At the beginning I thought it could be some kind of driver problem, so i tried to reinstall and update graphics and display drivers, but it did not work. Event manager doesn't show anything either.

I assume it could be faulty PSU but i'm not entirely sure about that, because it all started after the windows update, never had any problems with this pc before that.

Any suggestions what I should try out, before doing entire reset on it?

Also, i kept my task manager open once, and i saw that, before displays crashes my gpu went from 40% to 99% with just a second. I didn't see any other suspicious thing at that time.

I've seen it's a big problem with alot of people rn so it should not be a problem with hardware.

so it runs fine after the first restart and doesn't freeze until after you turn pc off and come back again?

If so, try turning this off - https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/4189-turn-off-fast-startup-windows-10-a.html

Actually no, It's just the only way to get my monitor back to work. But I can still try this and reply if it still happens.

Also, that should not be the issue, there's something that conflicts with my graphics driver or graphics card itself, not entirely sure.

Maybe you should ask on here as there are more people there who will help, games forum isn't where I would go to ask - https://forums.tomshardware.com/forums/systems.7/

It started to happen after the latest windows update (KB5004237).

Can you uninstall that?

It has been more than 10 days so i guess not.
