CTD - post DDoS attacks

I've been having CTD several times per day since the recent DDoS attacks, I'm not sure what is wrong, could someone look at my DXdiag and tell me what's going on?

Few things have noted

Bios should be updated to the latest version, looks like your version came with the motherboard , this should be done to update the microcode that should resolve a voltage issue with the i9-14900K cpus , symptoms included game crashes
Example to issue - https://www.reddit.com/r/overclocking/comments/1l4iwqb/upgraded_to_i914900k_do_i_still_need_to_manually/

otherwise manually lower the voltage limits

Bios Updates are at https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/PRO-Z790-P-WIFI-DDR4/support

The dxdiag shows a crash in nvgpucomp64.dll which can be caused by voltage

Other then that given your video card is a Ti model , see if returning to nvidia stock speeds has any effect with stability by going to debug mode in the nvidia control panel per the image

What do i look for with the Debug mode and were would i find the info?

Debug mode just returns the video card to NVidia reference clock speeds, so it removes the overclock, some programs/games can be sensitive to the overclock, this is how you can check

I take it i need to play the game to figure it out and how would i work it to force it to not overclock for swtor but leave it running for the other games?

Glad to hear it helped, reference your previous question regarding debug mode, only way i am aware is to turn debug mode on prior to playing and turn it off when finished

certain games are sensitive to overclocking and this is one reason debug mode exists to restore default nvidia clock speeds
