My Soyo SY-Yanlong B550M keeps triggering driver crashes during heavy combat in Crysis. Why is this?

Every time a massive explosion hit the screen, the game would just crash to desktop without warning. The anxiety of not knowing when the next crash would hit was peak stress. The PCIe 4.0 lanes on the Soyo SY-Yanlong B550M were losing signal integrity under load, causing the GPU driver to time out in about 0.1-0.3ms. I tried the latest drivers, but that actually made it worse, increasing crashes from once an hour to every thirty minutes—a total nightmare. I finally went into the BIOS and forced the PCIe slot to Gen 3 and disabled Fast Boot. GPU-Z showed the bus latency drop from 120ns to a steady 85-92ns, and I played for four hours straight with zero crashes. I did notice a 15% drop in SSD read speeds, but I'll take that over a crashing PC any day. VRM temps are now 68-74℃ and the CPU is between 72-78℃. Windows Event Viewer is finally clean, and the mouse feels way more responsive.
