Fairly new build, has been mostly good (some ingame issues), no freeze/restart for 1 month of gaming.

This passed week ive gotten freeze and pc restart .
This seems to start after the ambient temperature in room rise with hot weather. some days 0-1 crash some days it just keep crashing.

Ive done most if not all of the easy troubleshooting:
GPU,CPU,BIOS drivers all latest.
Monitoring temperaturs (all show fine (gpu ram tops at 75C, CPU tops at SOC 52)
SSD test, Ram rest. removed 1 ram and testet in multiple ram location slots.
Windows 11 fixes like /Scannow and all of those + even Windows 11 in place upgrade.
Power managment (HDD turn off to 0minutes, CPU max ussaged reduced from 100%).
Changed power cord, testet with different monitors and cables.

BIOS: Turned off PBO,CBP,C-State controller. Tried to set CPU to different fixed voltages. EXPO turned off.

So i dont have spare parts to test gotta start buying stuff to see what to replace to make the fix, but hope for help to figure out where i should start.

The first crash is always after game for a little time (1-8 hours), but then i can get multiple or neverending crashes that can happend in bios, in windows installing an update or starting game.
If i crash in bios does that rule out SSD failure and Software ?

Where to start and what can i rule out?.

Make sure CPU cooler is sitting well. I have read about case on other forum where user was experiencing freezes, crashes and restarts and it turned out that cooler wasn't sitting well or some physical contact was the issue, or something like that. Just inspect the case, make sure everything is sitting properly and there's not contact issues with parts.

To confirm or deny that it is temperature related, open the case and have an external fan blowing on the motherboard.
 
Does your motherboard show anything on the EZ Debug LED when it freezes and you have to fully restart?
What are the DRAM/SSD temps before it crashes?
