The game can't make your hardware run out of spec.
Laughs in New World.
(technically it was NVidia's fault but still, a game can absolutely brick hardware it's just very unlikely)
Faulty soldering. Not Nvidia's fault: https://www.techpowerup.com/286260/evga-reveals-that-bad-soldering-was-the-culprit-behind-bricked-rtx-3090-cards
Certainly not New Worlds fault either.

Your PSU (Power Supply Unit) is most likely dying and shutting down under loads from your GPU, try to use a donor to test it.

The whole system is now unstable and even discord is enough to send my PC into a rebooot (or just straight up shuts it down). It starts for a second and then the power is lost and my startup screen is all flickering.
Git good! :)

Sounds like an overheating issue.
Or something litteraly fried up.
Repaste your cpu - Try again.
Repaste your gpu - try again.
Remove gpu and go on intergrated only and see what happens.
A couple of things to try.
Probably this. Same symptoms I had with a PC and a very demanding game. The PC starts shutting down after a while because it's getting too hot, until it fries the thermal paste on the CPU or GPU, and then it can't even start again.

After a day of playing PoE 2, which I really enjoyed even though I had my PC reboot countless times to the point where it didn't even boot anymore. I now can't even play any other games, because after about 10 minutes my PC shuts down and does NOT boot back up. The whole system is now unstable and even discord is enough to send my PC into a rebooot (or just straight up shuts it down). It starts for a second and then the power is lost and my startup screen is all flickering. I did not have any issues prior to that

Nothing overclocked, thermals were good.. not sure why this is happening.
Edit: It all started when I got to Act 2
it means your thermals are NOT good. The only software that can damage the hardware is the operating system.
POE2 is very heavy on the thermal profile of your PC.
If your computer was rebooting. on the FIRST TIME. that was a sign somethign was wrong with the hardware.. why people continue to use and stress it on these situtions is beyond me

GGG fix burning ground effect, this will spike gpu usage to 100 even if game runs fine on 60-70 gpu usage.

It's probably due to unstable electrical current. My best guess is that either your motherboard or PSU is damaged. I recommend getting a UPS, the more power your PC draws, the more essential a UPS becomes

I don't blame the game and there is a question mark. I've played stalker 2 on high, played CS while streaming, wu-kong.. no other game has done it.
This is a genuine question and why I am bothered is only because most of the other games I play are also demanding. Now I can't play anything and it all happened AFTER i played PoE2, which I still very much like and I won't say anything bad..
The game makes the CPU run 100%+ on alot of people including me. And I am almost sure that this alone caused the issue. I am not denying that the CPU/PSU/GPU or whatever might be defected. I don't know much about PCs in this area. All I know is that there are other more demanding games that have no issues
my game was running on low and FPS cap was 120. How on earth can that be demanding with my pc?
thermals didn't go above 80C btw. That was all under control. And to clarify the issue doesn't seem to be in GPU, I tried CS for 10 mins before it shut down my PC and the FPS was as good as before, power draw was fine, temps were 70C..
The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.
This is what Event Viewer said. Might be the PSU
It is NOT your CPU. CPUS either boot or do not boot. CPUs dimply do not fail only after a certain time operating.
Most likely is your PSU or motherboard.
