Wow, thank you for such an elaborate explanation! Sorry for the time wasted, hopefully this time around, I can give you much more brief and on-point data.

Hello!
I have experienced two random restarts lately, and the event viewer says it's due to "bug check". I have uploaded the .dmp file here, if anyone wants to take a look:

I appreciate any help you are willing...
Oh, sorry to hear that! Hopefully you get better soon!
Wow, that is very fast, helpful and insightful answer! It is an Nvidia 3090 card, so I'd prefer it being a driver issue, than the card.
But thank you very much, you have been very helpful!
After a yearly clean formating of my computer, I have experienced the WHEA restarts on random occasions. Since I have been able to get the memory dump file I'm attaching it here, so if anyone cares to take a look at it, and maybe point me in the direction of solving those annoying restarts, I'd...
Well, actually the restarts were reduced a lot once I changed the driver from "Studio" to "Gaming". So I assumed that has something to do with it, but the restarts are still not completely eliminated. Lately I have been experiencing restarts after shutting down demanding applications (rendering...
Yes, (from my uderstanding) Studio drivers as "reliable" optimized drivers for content creators, as opposed to high performing gaming drivers. But as you said, the least performing drivers are ones that make you stare into BSOD :)
Interesting perspective regarding old drivers, I've never...
System is stable.
Yes, and that's what bothers/confuses me... I would expect it being more stable, since it's geard towards content creation, which relies on overnight rendering, etc...
Hey everyone! Just wanted to update the thread if anyone is interested. It turns out Nvidia Studio Driver on my RTX3090 was what caused restarts for me :oops:
Last week I went to Zotac website, downloaded the latest driver there (regular "gaming" driver), and suddenly system was rock stable...
Thank you @ubuysa for your time, examination of the dump files and a great explanation. I will follow suggested actions, and if I come up with a solution, I will update here!
I also just wanted to say - it is great to see/experience a forum with people actually trying to help each other, that...
I found some WHEA.dmp files, and uploaded them here:

Hope that helps!
Thank you, but I cannot find that file anywhere. I check around the web for possible locations, and checked everywhere, but no such file exists on my system 🤷♂️
Thank you for the suggestion, @Martinr36 . By the way - I'm not really up to date on how things work these days - is it OK to just pull RAM out of the sockets, or should I do anything is BIOS as well?
Regarding the restarts - I checked the "Armoury Crate", and there were some updates pending...
So, about a month ago I got my new workstation, and for the last couple of days I had some random restarts, for which the event viewer loggs:
A fatal hardware error has occurred.
Reported by component: Processor Core
Error Source: Machine Check Exception
Error Type: Cache Hierarchy Error...
