Just a brief update. PC remained frozen without the graphics card when I switched off the stress test in order to install it. Immediately afterward. It took much longer. Recently, I've been browsing the web and watching Twitch (without the card). It's not heavy or power-hungry, using minimal resources. It's been running for 9 hours so far without any issues... Unfortunately, the new PSU hasn't arrived yet, so I'll wait until Monday to test it. It seems the failing PSU is the issue.
It seems the GPU is consuming excessive power and the PSU isn't enough. The issue might be related to an 8-pin connector. A text message confirmed Royal Mail will deliver the PSU today, which should help resolve the problem.
It's clear the GPU is consuming excessive power and the PSU isn't sufficient. The issue might be related to an 8-pin connector. After two hours of stress testing and another two hours of gaming, no freezing occurred. Appreciate the assistance received. The new PSU seems to resolve the problem. Thanks again!

2 hours under stress + 2 hours gaming without freezing. Thanks to everyone for their assistance. The new PSU seems to be working better. Appreciate all the help!
Good luck!
