Hi guys sorry to trouble you.
I'm getting hard freezing in Big Sur (and have been doing for a while now) with no real remedy despite a lot of tweaking my end to try and fix this. Unfortunately, its pretty much gotten to the point where the computer is unusable for work as its hard freezing so often.
This is the error report upon rebooting:

I know this is a bit of a stab in the dark but is there anyone who can help me here with this? I've been loosening ram timings and downclocking in order to try and fix but it still remains.
Strangely enough the computer is stress test stable in Windows (according to Intel Xtreme Tuning Utility & Karhu's RAM tester).
The only thing I can think of now is a problem with my EFI folder as the computer runs perfectly in Windows for hours of gaming. I've attached it herewith ***unsanitised*** in case the EFI truly is to blame.
I use Big Sur however for Logic Pro X for my album work and am stuck with this machine for the time being...
Thank you in advance you wonderful lot!
