My computer's components are:
Amd Ryzen 5 5600x
Amd rx 6600 XT
16 gigs of ram (2×8) Gskill ripjaws set to 3200mhz
3 disks
1 nmvme samsung evo 500gb
1 ssd 250gb
1 hdd 1tb
MSI mortar max b450m
Psu thermaltake smart rgb 700w

Is there a way to stop the computer from freezing? The freezing is really rare from times to times but still i dont want it to get worse by the times goes by. The freezes have only happened when i was playing games. I have updated my bios, so did with my gpu drivers and everything else in my system with driver booster pro. I have performed a format recently on my windows 11 disc and i thought the problem was over, but it still occurs. Also i dont know if this is important but sometimes when i close my screen for a long time and i turn it back on i dont have any signal and i have to restart the pc again ( screen is aoc 23' monitor 165hz amd freesync premium)
 
Also look in Reliability History/Monitor.

Much more user friendly than Event Viewer and the time line format can be very revealing. May be some pattern.

In both tools, check the details regarding entries - especially error codes. The details may or may not be helpful.

= = = =

How old is the PSU? Condition: original to build, new, refurbished, used? History of heavy gaming use, video editing, or bit-mining even?

= = = =

Power down, unplug, open the case.

Clean out dust and debris.

Verify by sight and feel that all connectors, cards, RAM, jumpers, and case connections are fully and firmly in place.

Use a bright flashlight to inspect for signs of damage, loose or missing screws, cracks, corrosion, browned or blackened areas, melting, bare conductor showing, pinched/kinked wires.

I listened to your advice and i checked the reliability history and what i found was that only the system had not been shut down properly. Even when i clicked into more options i couldnt find anything usefull. Sadly for some reason i cant copy paste a screenshot here for some weird reason. Anyways about the psu questions is that its like 3-4 years old i am not really sure. It was not refurbished, or use it was brand new. Yeah my brother used to play some games like fifa and other games on high graphics but it wasnt like i was running god of war ragnarok on 4k and no i havent mined on my pc, im not into that stuff. Lastly i am sure that everything is in place and firmly adjusted but just in case ill check again

There are more but they are all the same type of errors (kind of)
 
In Reliability History what error codes are being recorded?

Varying errors and increasing numbers of errors are an indication of a faltering/failing PSU.

PSU may well be nearing or even at its' designed in EOL (End of Life). May seem okay but a sudden peak in power demand or other issues may be reacted to and noted as a shutdown.

And if Windows did not have the time to do its' housekeeping the event becomes "not properly shutdown".

Do you have access to another known working (no problems) PSU that can be swapped in for testing purposes?

Remember to use only the cables that came with any given PSU.
 
Like i said before, i have found both windows hardware error and windows did not shut down properly error. I have sent 2 of the windows hardware error info i could get by 2 tapping it. Although when i tryed to get more info about the windows did not shut down properly error there was no more information just the date of the error. Also no sadly i do not have any extra psus on my house, and the one i have are like reallllyyyy ooolld
 
Could you help me with finding my way into the reason why? Im not such a master with computers
Also like i have said before when my computer freezed while i was playing a game i restarted my whole computer. But the windows reliability history detects it as a not proper shut down
