The computer is virtually new, I thought it was X Y and Z that ended up not being it, so the x670e-a MoBo, Corsair Ram and Ryzen 9 7950x3d CPU are less than a week old, The GPU RTX 4090 and Asus Thor 1200w PSU a month old, the only thing that is old is the water cooler(But the temps are not surpassing the 70C at any time) and the UPS, which is about 2 years old

So this happened even before, when I had an X570e gaming, Ryzen 9 5900x, Domainator Ram, and a 3080 GPU

What happens is:

An example of today; Woke up at 8am, turned computer on, checked to see if I have any pending work, then went to the toilet, when I came back the PC monitor had no image, but the Ram, MoBo, GPU and PSU RGB were on, as if the computer is running normally

I cold booted and started again, worked fine until around 4:30pm

Was playing Sons of the forest and had some vids playing on the second screen

Temp of the CPU was in the 50s, of the GPU on the 70s, GPU utilization was 90+/-(which is common in that game, as unoptimized as it is)

I lost image, but could still hear the video and pause it or start it with the media keys on my keyboard

I cold booted, was telling a friend that I was ready to just resell everything and get an Xbox X and keep my PS5 and Switch and just console game, because I am tired of this and at the same time I was checking the reliability tool... No hardcore games or software on... computer screen loses video and I have to cold boot it again

I have tried sfc /scannot, DISM, Reinstalled windows not 2 months back, clean installed(Did DDU) the graphics drivers both in the 3080 and 4090, with the x570e I tried flashing the BIOS to the latest version(which went horribly wrong as seen in my previous post) and the issue still happens

I was thinking that it might be the SSD, but then the computer would not boot right?

Any advise would be highly appreciated, because I am so tired of this happening and I am about to just give up on owning a PC lol

For context and to save people from looking backwards, this is your prior thread;
in there I asked for specs but you didn't follow through. We can only help you if you help us(with info).

Since you changed pretty much everything except for the storage, GPU and PSU and cooler, you might want to focus on them. Dropping them on a donor system to see if the issue persists.

the only thing that is old is the water cooler
What is the make and model of your (AIO)cooler and how old is it?

Reinstalled windows not 2 months back
Did you reinstall the OS after migrating platforms? 2 months ago you were on the X570 platform. If you did reinstall the OS, did you recreate the bootable USB installer and installing the OS in offline mode?

You stated being on an RTX4090, are you on the latest firmware for the GPU?

Make and model of your case?

You're better off listing your specs like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.
