I am having this issue on Linux. :( Currently running Windows for a few days to rule out the OS.

great, now I know it could happen. :')

Good luck, it plagues me for a brief period of time, about 2 week, imagine everyday you wake up and hear that boot loop fan spin up and down and scratch your head why has this happened. Almost drive me to replace components but I calm down and nail it in the end(cause the exact same combo has worked for about 2+ years before this happened after a driver update). But that's my exact batch of components and software combo, it may not work for you.

Like I mentioned in my post, my issue is strictly related to the power saving state related function that leads to the crash and boot loop. During the time of insanity, I've never encounter any crash to black screen while playing games or other normal use of my PC, I can reboot or shutdown/boot up normally for things like windows update or other software update that requires reboot.

From what I can gather before, if you have the normal use crash, or 3D gaming use crash, chances are it's one of your component that aren't the good batch. You can dig into some of the threads that OP's posted and you will see some of them eventually resolved by replacing stuff, or remove auto OC from bios or from the driver. If you have a newly built PC make sure you do these component rule out thing asap as modern return/replacement window is really tight. (ie. Canada Computer only 15 days.)
