If I paste just 4 snippets from the very looong list:

userspace watchdog timeout: no successful checkins from com.apple.WindowServer in 120 seconds service: com.apple.logd, total successful checkins since load (7020 se conds ago): 703, last successful checkin: 0 seconds ago

I am no software nor panic report expert, but if understanding remotely close enough the snippets, it's seems like a GPU or GPU driver problem. Watchdog did a restart because windowserver seemed like it's hang, there were no response from it in 120 seconds.

By the way, I do own almost exactly the same specced Mac Pro, that's what made me interested about your headline.
My Mac: Mac Pro 6,1, E5-1650v2, D300, 64GB/500GB, Big Sur 11.3
Just last week it had booted itself. Can't remember the logs though.
And it does loose one DIMM occasionally, just checked only 48 GB out of 64 is recognized at the moment.

Thanks for taking a look and for your insight!

I am hoping (praying lol) it is just a software issue. I found this link last night:


I spent last night running a ton of tests pegging the CPU and GPU to try and get it to crash in macOS (exporting 4k short in final cut, running 4k youtube videos in chrome and safari, ran Valley and Heaven benchmarks as well as cinebench). I even installed windows through Bootcamp and ran 3dmark and played a few games to try and get the thing to crash and restart. GPU temps stayed consistent 57-62 degree Celcius the entire time. Seemed to be rock solid. It seems it literally happens at the most random times. It's been rock solid so far and the last time it watchdog kernel panicked was yesterday when I opened MS Word.

Thanks for the link, it was a long read. Ok merely skimmed through it more than read all of it.

Good news seems to be it is not necessarily related to Mac Pro 6,1 weak thermals, causing D300/D500/D700 to fry up.
So it can be a software problem, thus should be correctable by Apple.
Bad news is this seems not to be corrected by apple, through over more than a years time.

the only person that has a satisfactory experience with their 2013 i could find in the last 12 months was someone that had the GPU modules *and* the GPU Riser replaced, and the problem persisted through both D300's getting swapped out and apparently the GPU Riser component itself was what they believed fixed the issue.

i'm on a crusade now and if i knew these were all basketcases i'd have saved myself a lot of time by just buying a 5,1 or 7,1.
