Over the past 2 or 3 weeks, I've noticed that firefox tabs are crashing more often out of nowhere.

https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/4a42f4cd-2203-40ba-a40c-616590251210#tab-details

Here's one of the links for the most recent tab crash. Other crashes pretty much were all the same. I can't read or understand this, so I was hoping someone who can is able to tell me what is wrong.

I fear that it might be hardware related, as I've had tabs also crash on Edge and on a new install of Firefox Developer Edition (which I downloaded simply to test if things crashed there as well.) I've also noticed programs like Discord & Elgato Wave Link sometimes randomly crashing as well - but I'm unsure how to pull logs for those, Firefox was the easiest.

My laptop's hardware specs are as follows:

Lenovo Legion Pro 5 - 16IRX9 Processor: Intel Core i9-14900HX (2.2GHz) Installed RAM: 32 GB GPU: GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU Windows 11

If you need more information, please let me know.

Here are some previous crashes that I've reported as well:

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

It looks like a faulty CPU. These Raptor Lake CPUs have some serious overheating and stability issues. There should be BIOS as well as CPU microcode upgrades that might mitigate some of the issues, but if that does not resolve things, you have to take things up to Intel.
