Yeah seems that shaders can cause problems. I was using complementary on
CachyOS with kde and it was just not working out. Then I switched to bsl and
had no issues until over time I had the same timeouts, and then I realized that
the vram oc I had was creating instability. Now I am back on nobara without
that dreaded overclock and have no issues for now. But I really do think this
is more so the vram because it was also resetting the same way on other games. 

The reason I thought that it was minecraft at first was because it was the only
game causing these timeouts, but I think I didn't give it enough time on other
games to make the best conclusion. I realized I was being stubborn because on
Windows I was able to push my vram to the highest amd adrenalin would let me
set it (+150mhz) and have no problems, so I genuinely thought that the more
conservative overclock I had on linux was fine. But I guess the behavior is
different on here and I just thought I could have the same clocks and be fine.
What I did now was change my power profile + reset vram clocks and that is
somehow giving the same performance, even though the vram clock is at stock
speeds. So far I have no issues but I am gonna give it more time to confirm
this
