The main concern is the recent PC build with the specified components.
I've tested Cinebench and Heaven without any crashes, but issues appear only during gaming sessions. I'm mainly playing Far Cry 6 and Helldivers 2, planning to try other titles. Usually I can launch a game and play for about 5 to 20 minutes before it freezes and returns me to the desktop. This is becoming really frustrating.
I've attempted the following fixes:
- Updating BIOS
- Reinstalling Windows
- Uninstalling and reinstalling GPU drivers via DDU
- Reseating RAM and GPU
Please share any additional suggestions if you have them. I really hope this system becomes stable. Thank you.

From your description, it seems the issue appears during extended gameplay, suggesting thermal concerns. Keep an eye on the temperatures.
