Question / Help OBS Crashes Randomly After Some Time Recording Passes.

I was using an older version of OBS (22.0.2) and everything was running smoothly. I updated and my recording kept lagging even though nothing was changed. I clean installed, and the problem persisted. I decided to go back to OBS 22.0.2 and it ran smoothly until just recently, where it started crashing after recording for some time. I will post a log with 22.0.2 and would like to know what is going on.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Update your BIOS, Ryzen CPUs have known defective microcode which causes this crash. Also turn off any overclocking if enabled.

I tried that and the problem still persists. I stopped the OC and I already have the latest BIOS and the problem continues

EDIT: The problem only started as I re-installed windows as it was getting clustered. Everything was PERFECT before then (December) and the OBS crashes only started happening last week.

Then the problem might still be the CPU. How recent is the BIOS? It's possible your board manufacturer never released a fixed microcode update.

Well, It is version P4.70 and any update after that gives me the "WARNING! ROM file information does not match your system BIOS" so I cant update further to the NEWEST. The thing I dont understand is how it has been working just fine since Oct 7, 2017 until January of 2019.
Could there be any other reason on why it isnt working properly or is it most likely the CPU? Is there any other information I can give to narrow down the problem?

Did you try the LinX memory test? Perhaps run it for a few hours, it is usually quicker at uncovering memory issues than memtest86. These types of crashes are almost always caused by faulty memory, overclocking or an outdated Ryzen BIOS.
