[SOLVED] Kernal 41... Psu tapped out?

Thanks in advance for your interest in this post.
So I bought 32gb dominator 3600 mhz ram (2 dimms) the other day, coming from 3200 vengeance (4 dimms 2 16gb, 2 8gb) and my system is turning off. Usually when I come back, the system is off. I checked the error log and I've noticed kernel 41 errors pretty much since I got the dominator ram the other day. Also, during a reboot my USB keyboard wouldn't work and I had to reboot. I have a lot of devices going into a powered USB hub, going to one USB port.
My system specs are:
Psu: 750w corsair cx750f rbg
Motherboard: x570 msi gamers edge
Psu: AMD 5900X
GPU: 3070 FE
AIO: NZXT Kraken z63 280mm
5 corsair sp120 fans
1 pci wifi card
2 corsair rbg hubs
Not sure if this may be too much for either one usb port or my power supply can't handle it all. Any idea on where to start?

Psu: 750w corsair cx750f rbg

How old? Heavy use for gaming, video editing, or even mining?

Do you have a multi-meter and know how to use it? Or know someone who does?

Not a full test as the PSU is not under load. However, any voltages out of spec are a likely indication that the PSU has reached EOL (End of Life).

Another option, if possible, is to swap in another known working PSU.

As always, be sure to take any immediate opportunity to backup important data to another location (or two) not on the problem system.
