PC hard freezes/locks when gaming only on Windows 11

[chaud57222]

Hello, I've been having problem with Windows 11 for a few months now. My specs:
Ryzen 5 5600
Asus Prime B450M-k ii
2x16GB 3200mhz RAM
XFX Speedster RX 6600 8GB
I have been switching between windows 10 and 11 for a 5-6 times now to test this, the issue only occurs on windows 11.

I do clean windows installation, I install latest drivers (I have tried previous drivers too, same issue), chipset, all the usual, on windows 10 I have no problems what so ever, but on windows 11 I have random freezes/locking up where everything becomes unresponsive and I have to restart PC. Sometimes it doesn't happen for 2 days, sometimes it happens 4 times in one day. It only happens when I play games. I did all hardware tests, temperatures and usages are the same as on windows 10, I set up clean installation identical to windows 10 but something keeps crashing my PC and I don't know what. If anyone have any idea please let me know. I have seen several posts with the same issue but I couldn't find answers anywhere.

Also I forgot to mention, event viewer doesn't show me anything useful, only "the system has shutdown unexpectedly" stuff

Sounds like a windows issue, check for updates, apply if needed. Id wait 1-2 weeks and see if Microsoft fixes the issue.
