Recurring ntoskrnl.exe crashes and BSODs on a new PC with random BugCheck causes and different drivers - help needed!

AVE...

I have a constant problem with running Windows 10 on a new PC. First crashes were caused by faulty PSU, but I replaced it already. Other components (CPU, GPU, motherboard, SSD, RAM) are brand new. I have two old hard drives too, but I use them for storage only.

I have random BSODs with random BugCheck errors, all indicating the culprit to be ntoskrnl.exe with address 3f5780. No matter what I do, I can't avoid BSODs 3-5 times a day. Things I did:

  1. DISM and SFC, multiple times. Found some corrupt files on two occasions, fixed them, no results.
  2. Driver Verifier #1, found problems with ene.sys (Gigabyte RGB Fusion and related bloatware). Cleared it all out and removed offending file. Didn\t work.
  3. Driver Verifier #2, this time it was AmdTools64.sys, removed all amd*.sys files just in case. Didn't help.
  4. Driver Verifier #3, Avast VM driver sys file this time. At that point I decided it's not the drivers, it's something else.
  5. I ran MemTest 86 on my memory (which is overclocked by XMP profile). No errors. Also state of overclocking has no effect on the BSODs.
  6. I checked temperatures, ran AIDA64 stability tests, ran Fumark test on GPU, no problems with that since PSU was replaced.
  7. Last night I ran Media Creation Tool to overwrite the entire OS. I had 3 BSODs since, including one while writing this.

I had following BugChecks (as shown by BlueScreen View):

0x0000003b (00000000c0000005, fffff8056b0087de, ffffc58c841def40, 0000000000000000)

0x00000001 (00007ff9f8a0c074, 0000000000000000, 000000000000ffff, ffff8707`88461b80)

0x00000139 (000000000000001e, ffffdd09f7f28f50, ffffdd09f7f28ea8, 0000000000000000)

0x00000139 (000000000000001e, ffffcb0f5f40cf50, ffffcb0f5f40cea8, 0000000000000000)

All logs, minidumps and last memory dump file are here:

EDIT:

Just had another BSOD. This time with XMP disabled. BlueScreen View says:

0x00000133 (0000000000000000, 0000000000000501, 0000000000000500, fffff800444fa320)

with ntoskrnl.exe+3f5780, as always. File version: 10.0.19041.685 (WinBuild.160101.0800).

    I've never dealt with a more buggy OS than Windows 10.

    I used Windows ME for a time...

    It was always Windows 10 problem, since for most people it started with Windows update. For time being I disabled updates for next month, just in case...

    This is clearly a WINDOWS 10 issue.

    I am running Linux Mint 20 now, but I don't have any of these issues anymore. I do not need to disable XMP, or Core Performance Boost, or disable my DOCP profile in the bios. Previously, I tried fresh installing Windows 10, and even clean booting the OS. Nothing worked unless I disabled XMP and Core Performance Boost in the BIOS to get rid of the BSOD.

    Everything just works fine and snappier now than Windows 10.

    I will be using LM 20 for the time being until Microsoft gets their **** together with their buggy OS.

    I've been using Windows since 3.1. I've never dealt with a more buggy OS than Windows 10.

    Disabling Core Performance Boost seemed to help, as someone suggested. But i've got a BSOD once again after 4 days, right after i closed Black Ops Cold War after like 2 hours of gameplay.

    Yep, also getting very random BSODs, all pointing to ntoskrnl.exe 3f5780 or 3f5a80, sometimes when i restart my PC, sometimes when i'm gaming, sometimes a while after i close a game. Those were the cases so far, my pc is also brand new.

    SPECS: 

    AMD Ryzen 5 3600X

    Gigabyte X570 UD

    Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 ASUS TUF

    16gb (2x8) RAM Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 3000mhz

    Adata XPG 256GB NVME SSD

    Seagate Barracuda 2TB HDD

    EVGA 650W 80GOLD PSU

    Win 10 2004

    No manual overclocks, just the manufacter ones. No Hardware errors found so far, after some tests. Every driver, including Chipset and BIOS up to date. Also High Performance mode doesn't work here either, also i don't use any of the RGB software mentioned previously.

    mine didn't either and it crashed anyway uring browsing or just idling on desktop. I don't see the sleep config as a solution.
