Reinstalling video card drivers (clean install).Underclocking/undervolting processor and RAM.Manually setting clock speeds and voltages to stock.

Using the most up-to-date stable BIOS and beta version.Verifying file integrity (game is installed through Steam).So far, I have tried all of the following (and possibly more I cannot recall): Speakers and headset make an electronic humming sound for 1-2 seconds as it crashes. The person I play with also has noticed that Steam re-displays that I am playing the game again a moment before I crash (the notification when a friend opens a game). It seems the more players are around, the more of a problem it becomes and that I crash more frequently. They're not consistent though, it may be fine for five minutes, or it may be fine for an hour. I have, however, noticed that the crashes only happen when other players are around- be it in my crew or others, though it is possible it would if I were to play long enough on my own, as I don't like playing solo. I can stress test the processor to hell and back, and play any other game in my library without issue, so I don't really think it's that. The only hardware change since I last played was a processor upgrade. However, I now experience issues that fully crash my computer when playing this game. I recently tried to get back into playing Sea of Thieves, and have been wanting to play it more and more.
