System crash/reboot on Steam dmg shader

So, couldn't find any similar issues, but my system is working fine, to the point when someone blows up one of those water/steam containers next to me.
At that time once the steam damages me a Shader VFX will kick in, which results in my system crashing immediately and rebooting. 
Since it seems to be related to the shader I would guess it's purely on the GPU side, I am with latest drivers on AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT.


Cheers!

    I haven't taken any actions, because it happens very rarely. It was mostly to alert the QA team on your end. It seems that the VFX changes over time, because it doesn't happen right at the start, but when  you take significant amount of dmg from the steam or when the effect reaches a certain level. I am very positive it's something to do with the particular shader used, so it might be related to the set of instructions, especially if it's a manually written shader. Thanks!
