I built a PC about three months ago. Here are the specs: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/xYJcmg

The PC will randomly freeze and then I will lose my displays when I stress it (using Premiere with Chrome open downloading stuff). The computer stays running but the displays go black. This issue started today and I've had no issues up to this point.

I ran a test on Userbenchmark and my CPU is running far below expectations and there is high CPU usage. I cannot for the life of me figure this out. Here is the test: https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/26271105

I ran the test once before this one and it was down to 8%. Is this a cooling issue? NZXT Cam says its 40 degrees right now but I'm also not stressing it (literally only have Reddit open while I type this out)

Any tips or ideas?

Although not very informative and trustworthy, one answer is in benchmark "High background CPU (24%). High background CPU reduces benchmark accuracy. Find active processes with Windows task manager (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC)".
