The pc will freeze first few times I turn it on in the morning. I can normally log into windows for a few mins but sometimes it freezes when I'm typing in my windows 10 password. After a few restarts, the pc will run fine for the rest of the day on chrome, games and stress tests.

Pc specs
2700x
5700xt
corsair vengeance 16gb 2133mhz
corsair TX650M watt psu
Asus prime B450-PLUS ATX

Problems started when I upgraded the GPU but as the problem happens when the GPU isn't being used I don't know if is causing the problem.

My thought is that there is a loose card or connection.

Once the pc does manage to start it warms up and the loose connection (or component even) expands to make a tighter connection.

Power down, unplug, open the case, and inspect.

Reseat all cards, connectors, jumpers, RAM...

Hopefully you will find something loose or not otherwise fully seated. Once back in place, the problem will go away.
