As title says. The PC keeps restarting. Since building it it would ocassionally just hang up , freeze with the audio cutting out. In the last couple of days its stopped doing that and just auto restarts - turned off this setting even though it didn't stop it from just freezing before. BIOS up to date. HDD and SSD both in good health according to S.M.A.R.T, memtest detected no issues on RAM, all drivers up to date
 
i would probably start with a fresh new OS install.
this is much easier than testing each hardware component separately.

make sure you're on the latest motherboard BIOS available,
download all motherboard and other component's latest drivers to a separate location,
use the MS Media Creation Tool for a fresh updated OS installation package,
format OS drive and perform the fresh install,
update all system drivers,
hope for the best...

Reinstalled Windows 11. so far alright. The only thing i think could be the issue is NZXT Cam. Seems to have caused a lot of the same issues for people who have it
