Campaign Always Crashes After 10 Minutes Of Gameplay - Star Wars Battlefront 2

If I got 1 dollar from every comment on this forum that contains the following line (or something similar) I'd be a very rich person: This is a AAA title that's only been out for a few years. Why does this bug still exist?And I'm not considering the comments from people that have no reason to say that, only those that experienced some glaring or stupid issue with the game.
I've been here since 2017 and started bughunting in 2018. Through the entire life of this game the BUGs were the spotlight. So many BUGs of so many natures. I could lose hours describing the experience of having to deal with them and reporting them here.
Instead let's see if there's something else you can do. Devs won't ever fix this, so we can't wait for them to do anything. EA may help you by reaching EA help directly but you already did that, so they didn't fix your issue. The best i can do is think outside the box because if you did everything you could to solve the issue with your GPU, then maybe it's not the GPU itself, but the game doing something funky that its consequence is visible by how much strain your GPU has to handle, and the frequent crashes.
Ok, so, do you experience these crashes in any other mode or only in the Campaign? I know you said you did experience this after 40 mins in multiplayer, but that could have been for another reason. But, if you keep experiencing this in other modes, it's good to know. Also, does the crash always behave the same? If it does, how exactly does it happen? In the video you shared it's a screenfreeze, a hardlock, but by your description I imagine your screen just goes black and then your PC reboots, is it like that?
If you have DX12 mode turned on, turn it off. I know it may have nothing to do with this, but if you do have DX12 mode on maybe it's all its fault. Battlefront II and DX12 don't go well with each other.
Also, considering it seems to be an issue that forces your PC to shut itself down due to unusually high strain, maybe it is having memory allocation issues? TBH I have no idea if VRAM uses Paging, but if it does, and you have that disabled, that could explain the crashes. Unfortunately I can't guide you here as I never messed with this. I think you can find something on google about VRAM Paging.
