Question Game black screen/freezing at random intervals

God of War Ragnarok black screens randomly, sometimes a few minutes in, other times 30-60 minutes in. Audio is still present, can jump to different programs during the freeze, but it never resumes working again.

7900xt, 5900x, 16gb 3600mhz, B550-F, ThermalTake 750w

Temps on everything are normal, GPU pulls consistent 330-360w during game. I've tried rolling back drivers all the way to 24.3.1, turned off D.O.C.P., can run other games just fine for hours. I've tried starting the game with no internet, signed into other games with PSN account.

Anyone have any idea what's going on with this problem?

Edit: Borrowed a friends RX 6800 and ran into the same problem an hour in. Any help is very much appreciated

severe problem with your system's hardware or software. If your graphic card driver is faulty or outdated, a third-party application interference or sometimes a Windows update can cause issues like these.

So i dont think anything is wrong with my systems hardware, i tested Cyberpunk for an hour and couldn't replicate the issue on that game. Windows is up to date as well. Any idea how to test if a third-party app is the cause of this?
