BATTLEFIELD 6 KEEP CRASHING!

PC SPECS
Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix B650-A Gaming WiFi
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D (4.7 / 5.2 GHz)
GPU: Sapphire AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT
RAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR5 32 GB (2x16 GB) 6400 MHz CL32
PSU: Corsair AX860i
Cooling: Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 280
SSD: Samsung 980 PRO 1TB PCIe Gen 4 (with heatsink)
HDD: WD 1TB
Since the latest season update, Battlefield 6 won't let me play for more than 5–10 minutes before the game freezes, crashes to desktop, and sometimes locks up my entire system to the point where I can't even restart Windows normally. Eventually, the PC either reboots itself or I have to force a shutdown using the power button.
I've already tried a large number of troubleshooting steps to determine whether this is a hardware issue, but this is the only game that causes these crashes.
Things I've already tried:
Changed PCIe mode in BIOS from Gen4 to Gen3.
Lowered RAM speed from 6000 MHz to 4800 MHz.
Uninstalled and reinstalled Anti-Cheat, and cleared the game cache.
Updated all drivers multiple times to ensure there are no corrupted files.
Tested with XMP/EXPO both enabled and disabled.
Enabled Secure Boot.
Reinstalled the game multiple times on both SSD and HDD.
Disabled all overlays (Steam, AMD/NVIDIA, Discord, etc.).
Tried different graphics settings, both low and high, to improve stability and prevent crashes.
Every time a crash happen, after i verify the BF6 steam files, always 3 missing, i recover them, and a check again and then its all good, but always always after each crash when ever i check the files integrity 3 will always be missing.
Important: This only happens with Battlefield 6. Every other game runs perfectly fine on my system.
I had the exact same issue during the previous season, but unfortunately I can't remember what fixed it back then. With this new season update, the problem has returned.
If anyone has experienced the same issue and found a solution, please let me know. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have played today with the new nvidia driver along with past week with the older so can rule out the nvidia drivers
have you had a look in event viewer for the crash code?
I have near enough same rig and running without issues
b850+wifi
AMD ryzen 7 9800x3D
32GB RAM
The freeing on the other hand has been a windows 11 taskbar issue for a good couple of months now, some have it some don't. Try disabling game mode, game bar, and optimised for windowed games.
Hell at this point I'd run

and only run minimum tweaks, restart pc and see how that goes, remove all the usual bloatware windows 11 comes with

Regarding the event viewer just say this " The previous system shutdown at 2:23:44 PM on ‎6/‎22/‎2026 was unexpected. "

extract and run DDU making sure to select device type on the right to GPU and under to amd to avoid removing onboard graphics
Click Clean and restart from the left and let it do it's thing and after a restart then install nvidia app again and after install the latest driver.

Don't install nvidia app just yet but instead extract and run DDU making sure to select device type on the right to GPU and under to nvidia to avoid removing onboard graphics

but i dont use any nvidia drivers at all, i mean im fully AMD ,

and use AMD Adrenaline drivers, what for shall i install Nvidia drivers for?

My bad I read over it too quick never realised i assumed nvidia lmao, same thing still applies with DDU but uninstalling AMD drivers, then reinstalling AMD GPU driver
Not sure how adrenaline works, I never use it since I'm only AMD CPU, maybe try changing power mode in adreneline and see if that has been causing BF6 issues?

All good brother

If you have updated your drivers to the latest version try rolling back to Amd adrenalin-26.6.1 ,it started working fine after that, battlefield 6 and stellar blade both kept crashing on the latest driver.

A crashing PC is a feature set in EA/Dice's eyes. Like their famous loot boxes, it's a lotto with a prize. There's even an achievement

ISSUE FINALLY FIXED!!
One steam user shoutout to @iZnoGouD told me to unplug my GPU from my PSU, connect the monitor screen to the motherboard, and run the game using the Integrated Graphics card, i did that and was able to play without crashes.
So turn out my previous PSU might had some sort of issue, that could handle BF6, but didnt had any problem with any other game.
