DXGI Error Device Hung & Rest

Operating System- Windows 11 Home / Version 21H2
CPU- AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor (8X 3.8GHz/32MB L3 Cache)
GPU- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti 8GB GDDR6X / Driver Version 511.79
Memory- 16GB [8GB x 2] DDR4-3200MHz RGB
Game Launcher- Steam
Steam launch options (+fps_max 240+gfx_nvnUseLowLatency 1)
All in-game settings are set to Low
Not overclocking any hardware

For about 2-3 months I have been getting both DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG & DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_RESET, but in the last 2 weeks its been unbearable to play. The cause of these errors are unknown and irregular, meaning there isn't a pattern as to when they happen. I have done all the suggested fixes -> (EA Help Article ), plus preforming a complete hardware reset, clean install of GPU & CPU & DirextX 12, and edit the registry. The registry edit reduced the crashes but made my whole pc freeze as often as the crashes did, and the only way to fix the freeze is manually powering off my pc. I reverted the registry ever since with a clean install of Windows 11 Home, and was left these crashes again.

I really enjoy play Apex and don't want to quit, but if I'm going to crash from anywhere once ever 30 minutes to 4 times in 1 game then I guess I will. Is there any way to fix these crashes?
