Intel Core i9-12900k CPU
EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra GPU
Corsair Vengeance 5600 MHz DDR5 RAM
Gigabyte Z690 Aorus Ultra MOBO
EVGA Supernova 1000 G+ 80 Plus Gold PSU
ROG Strix Helios Gundam Edition Case
Corsair iCUE H150i Elite LCD CPU Water Cooler
WD Black SN750 500 GB NVMe OS SSD
Samsung 970 EVO 2 TB NVMe SSD
2x Seagate Exos X14 12 TB HDD
When I say crashes I mean it hard freezes and is only recoverable by hard reboot.
I've tried debugging everything I can think of.
Troubleshooting steps performed:
It usually crashes when stress testing the GPU, so I thought that was the culprit, but since it's still crashing when using CPU graphics, I don't think that's the issue.
I am thinking of redoing the thermal paste on the CPU since maybe the stuff pre applied to the CPU cooler sucks, and also thinking of trying a brand new power cable but other than that I'm out of ideas.

Troubleshooting steps performed:
- Stress testing CPU - no issues
- Memory check - no issues
- Installing OS on other SSD - still crashes
- Flashed MOBO BIOS - still crashes
- Reducing GPU Boost by 150 MHz, Memory by 200 MHz, power to 85% - still crashes
- Updating GPU BIOS - still crashes
- Utilizing CPU internal graphics - still crashes
- Switched power outlets - seems to crash less often, but still crashes.
