       I've been having a weird issue with my gaming PC. it used to be very rare but is now getting frequent and consistent enough that I can't actually game on it without this happening every two minutes or soso I use linux, right. vanilla arch with KDE, NVIDIA drivers, steam, this one software called "oversteer" for configuring my steering wheel, and literally nothing else. this is just my racing sim machine. I boot up assetto corsa, I start driving, I do a couple laps. and then,the audio and video freeze. I know the rest of the computer is fine, because the video game physics are still happening. I get force feedback from the steering wheel, and the feedback changes appropriately if I, say, come to a stop, shift into neutral, and then start again from first. so the video game must still be running. it's just that the video and audio have completely frozensounds like a GPU issue, right? but my headphones aren't plugged into the GPU. they're plugged into a USB DAC. why, then, would the audio also freeze for a GPU issue?also sometimes the video freeze just happens randomly too, like I'll walk up to the computer and the lock screen would have the date and time from many hours ago, and be completely uninteractableI've tried checking dmesg, nothing in there. I've tried reading it with both journalctl -k -b -1 after rebooting, and with sudo dmesg -W > oops.txt. in both cases, no logs at all indicating any sort of a crashany possible idea what could be up here?
