Games crashing suddenly on Aurora R12

[Chris---]

This all started on Friday (for us EST people) when nothing would work on my pc. Well let me go further, apps would open and such. Say Valorant as an example. I would load up Valorant and it would take around 5-6 minutes for it to boot up. Once it did boot up it just crashed. This has happened with other games such as GTA V. GTA just won't load though. And then Fortnite would just display some random code saying I was missing some things. I'm very confused because I haven't been on this pc for around a week and I've pretty much tried anything that would help solve this. I restarted my internet, restarted my pc, got the latest graphic drivers, yanked the power cord for 20 seconds. The thing I'm debating on right now is if I should reset my pc. I've never overclocked it or anything so I don't know how the cpu would be damaged. Sometimes it takes around 10-15 minutes for my stuff to start responding and it's made things a lot more difficult then they need to be. I haven't been able to find anything like my case while surfing the web so I'll link my specs below...

-Windows 11

-32GB Ram

-1.8 TB of space

-RTX 3060

-I5-11400F

That's all of the specs that I think are important but you can respond and ask me for some more depth and I'll give you it. Any solution helps!
