Question Semi-Frequent PC crashes and BSODs, unsure what the problem is.

Every now and then I keep getting BSODs on my computer for seemingly no reason, and I've been having strange crashes and instabilities in games and other software. These issues have persisted across driver updates, bios updates, and even clean os installs, leading me to believe this is a hardware issue. I've gotten no issues on disk checks as well as ramtest, so I haven't had luck solving the problem with them. What I do have is 3 recent crash dumps from WhoCrashed if they are helpful to anyone.

PC Specs:
Ryzen 5 5600
RTX 3070
MSI B550 Pro VDH WIFI
XPG 16gb 3200mhz ram (running at 2666hz bios defaults, doesn't seem to help with stability)
Default BIOS settings, other than fan adjustments

First crash dump is from a Prime95 test done to check the cpu, after a bit of testing the pc went black and restarted. Second is from a blue screen that occurred after turning on the computer after a (intentional) shutdown. The third I was playing a game and the game froze, screens went black, and pc restarted.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
