Hi everyone
I'm a first timer in building a workstation. I built a pc with the following hardware:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 3.4 GHz 16- Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Be Quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 50.5 CFM CPU Cooler
GPU: EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti 12 GB FTW3 ULTRA GAMING LE iCX3 Video Card
Motherboard: Gigabyte X570 AORUS Elite ATX AM4 Motherboard
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V 64 GB(2x32 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory
PSU: CORSAIR RM (2019) 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
...
Update: All parts are new and bought through Amazon, NewEgg and MemoryC
Throughout the process I followed multiple guides and asked friends who've built their desktops before for help. Everything went smoothly and no issues showed up in the first couple of weeks. I've also updated my BIOS to solve the possible compatibility issue with my CPU.
Now, since approximately a month ago, the desktop started having this issue where it would just shut off at random moments (mostly during low intensity) in which my screen would all of a sudden go black and reboot instantly. All the RGB lights of my components were still on as well as the power button light. So it kind of seemed it didn't actually shut off...
Some of the things I was doing when it dropped are the following:
Apart from that I noticed that sometimes some actions would lag a bit such as closing a software, people talking on zoom or switching tabs on chrome.
Did anyone else have this issue as well? Or does anyone know about a possible solution for this? I've tried as much as I could and I don't have any spare parts to replace them and figure out the problem... All help or information is more than welcome. I need this workstation for my education and workshops will get more intensive so I'd like to figure this out and fix it as soon as possible.
If any other information should be needed, be sure to let me know. As I said before I'm kind of a beginner in all this stuff, so I apologize if anything's missing!
Thank you in advance!

Some of the things I was doing when it dropped are the following:
- Basic Photoshoping (photobashing, nothing too heavy)
- Just having Photoshop open together with Chrome and Zoom
- Modelling in Autodesk Maya (only some texturing on spheres and cubes)
- During an install of VRay without any other software opened up...
