Game randomly goes black screen forcing hard reboot

After about an hour of gameplay the screen will randomly go black and my display adapter goes out, like my monitor no longer detects my GPU, nothing i do brings my display back I must hard reboot.

I have seen some reports that this stems from a known issue with Windows 11 24H2, so I just now upgraded to Windows 11 25H2 ands its happening more frequently now yay.

I am going to try Vulcan "I guess" until hopefully someone can figure out what the hell is going on, a bug that makes you question your hardware and makes you hard reset your system is not good to have I urge you to investigate.

No logs in event viewer, here are the game client logs before a crash, If i was a guessing/pure speculation man i would wager this has something to do with whatever mechanic you implemented that freezes the game when a network connection blip happens. Another thing i noticed is I cross an invisible barrier in the campaign maps that triggers a drop sound bell, you can run back and fourth across it to trigger the sound nonstop.

Device Removed. Reason: 0x887a0007
"0x887a0007 is a DirectX error, specifically DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_RESET, indicating your graphics card (GPU) device has been reset or removed"

I also updated to the latest Nvidia Drivers today no chance.

KK Im done
I started using Vulkan, plays great and cant even notice a difference but after a few hours the game crashed again... Here is the log dump from the crash using Vulcan
