    Try some game and 3d rendering benchmark like 3dmark it seems this is the only test you didn't mention. You mention crashing while playing games/3d but don't test the GPU?

      I suppose I've been fixating on the BSOD error messages too much. I also didn't think it would help uncover hardware issues

        Depends how old your components are, an old GPU may give driver errors that are pretty hard to identify. If your GPU is new then yeah I would probably overlook it too but it is best to check everything just in case.

          Copying my other comment:

          Well, I ran the demo for 3DMark. My Time Spy score is “Great” but all the other tests are behind a paywall

            Yeah this is hard doesn't seem like you'll be able to avoid a fresh install to rule out windows/drivers this is a far better(cost, time) option than trying to find a way to switch out and test each part one by one.
