RTX 5080 barely bricked by POE 2 on alt/tab freeze

So.. it happened only once and only on poe 2. Probably Driver issue or smh.. but makes me heart attack

on alt/tab game always freezes - i wanted to record video with nvidia overlay then alt/tab instead of freezed game showed me massive artifacts on monitors, like on burned gpu, all wents go up to 100% and the system speaker started bip-booping.

I guess it's related to the freeze and recording.
Can you guys do some re-testing and verify it extensively? i really don't want my 5080 to be burned - and even if.. now i have prof that i reported that
