Ok... I'm unable to repair SFC or run DISM commands. Followed all the steps and the same error.
I'm going to fresh install windows 10. Will post again, to update.
Thanks again for all the help. :)
"Will post again, to update."
Yes please, I spent 8 hrs yesterday ( solving comp problems is one of my hobbies ) researching your dump & log files, so I look forward to your feedback on the new install.

Yes I will. I decided to install the system again, to have a clean base to look at. These BSODs also happen in a new installation, it is a matter of time.
So far so good, installed all the AMD drivers with their driver autodetect, latest nvidia drivers, and lan and audio drivers from the MSI website. Installed world of warcraft, played for an hour, and no BSOD, so far.
Im not forcing any windows update, do far I'm at version 20H2, build 19042.631.
I'm gonna play more today, and o other things, lets see what happens. Will update.
Thanks again jmatt :)
Thanks Spudito, add programs very slowly, that gives you a chance to know what is the culprit.
I wouldn't install Malwarebytes until you are really sure things are Ok.
Yes, that's my idea too, adding programs, stress test enough, before adding another. I'll just keep windows defender as my AV.
Got the first notification from windows update: Imgur: The magic of the Internet
Let's what happens...
EDIT: Windows update done, I'm now at build 19042.867
"Let's what happens.."
Fingers crossed.

Back tomorrow, have fun.
And... they have returned...
Last thing I installed, was Sims 4, for my girlfriend. She played fine for about 2 hours. After about 5 minutes she exited the game, it BSOD, with no error, just stuck at 0%, and had to hard reset.
After the reset, right after I put the the windows login pin, got 3 BSOD's. Two of them, related to NVIDIA drivers, I think.
From WhoCrashed, I got this, if it helps:

A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error. It is suggested you look for an update for the following driver: hardware.sys .

If you need any logs, just tell me. i'm not going to install, or do anything on the computer, until next steps, to see if we can narrow the possibilities. :)
Did you use driver verifier to narrow down the problem?

All my previous research of your dump files & logs, pointed at Ram or NVIDIA driver.
As you have done a lot of testing etc on those 2, lets check the overheating side of things.

No, never used that. I will check the link, and give it a try. Thanks.
I'm using Artic MX-4, as I never use the thermal compound that comes with stock coolers. I used TG remover, to remove the stock thermal paste, and applied the new one, so I think this is not the problem, what can be the problem is the stock cooler, but I will check the temps. I have an Corsair H100i GTX water cooler, but I dont remember where I stored the AMD mounting bracketsI'm going to check online and see if I can buy new ones for AMD, and try the water cooler.
