Hi, ive recently built a new gaming pc with a rx6800 paired with an i5 12600k, but ive had issues with it freezing seemingly at random, sometimes when gaming other times when im just on the internet. Ive played a few games on it such as counter strike and rocket leauge which work fine for a while 30-40 mins before freezing, i did recently try with God of war and as soon as i try to load into the game it freezes instantly, there is no blue screen and im forced to hold down the power button to reboot it. Before you even ask, i have double checked that all my cables are completely seated, i have all of the necessary drivers installed and up to the latest version. I always keep a close watch on the cpu and gpu temps and they seem normal with the gpu howering around 50 and the cpu at around 30 while gaming. Im starting to get desperate and would appreciate any help or advice. Thanks

My Specs
CPU: Intel i5 12600KF
CPU cooler: Deepcool ak620
Motherboard: Msi b660 tomahawk wifi ddr4
Ram: Teamgroup 32gb ddr4 3600 cl18
SSD/HDD: Crucial p3 2tb
GPU: RX 6800
PSU: Msi mpg a750gf
Chassis: NZXT h5 flow
OS: Windows 11

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
If the PSU's been recycled from an older build, please include it's age apart from it's make and model.

Try and use DDU to remove all GPU drivers off of your platform then manually install the latest GPU driver off of AMD's support site, in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator.
