Research direction

Start by reproducing the reboot with multiple Saturn games and compare it with the DOOM core on Windows and Linux. Use the reported Ryzen 9 5900X and Radeon RX7900 XTX configuration as a reference. Done means the cause is isolated and the Saturn workload no longer reboots the PC, with the result checked across the affected systems.
