It's been a full week of troubleshooting going on, because it's so random when the freezes/crashes will occur. It varies from few minutes to several hours. Now I started removing more parts of the hardware. A quick test of the power supply with the oscilloscope didn't show anything. Only a very small deviation, but within the acceptable levels. The GPU isn't issue for sure. Now I have to test the drives by installing the OS on the other drive and remove the primary one...
It's so tiring taking so long to troubleshoot computer issues, especially if it's hardware related. I don't miss doing that 10 years ago..

I've reached my limit of the tests I can conduct with the means I currently have. We suspect it may be issue with the CPU, the power supply, or the motherboard. But in order to conduct proper tests we need to send it to a technician in Athens, which means many more days without PC. It was suggested by a friend to first try a different power supply, but we don't have one, not even our local technician can offer one.
