windows keeps crashing on Intel core i5 12600k

HI!

Sometimes when my pc is under load or i'm just watching videos, it freezes (sometimes with an audio bug) and will keep running but wont respond to anything (like everything just suddenly stopped, with the keyboard and monitors still on) and i have to restart it with the power button.

Also i didn't overclock anything, I just have XMP enabled.

Here's what i tried so far:

  1. Checked for overheating with HWiNFO, the temps were normal
  2. Checked my RAM with memtest86, no problems there
  3. Checked my PSU, the volages were fine
  4. Got a brand new NVMe SSD
  5. Updated UEFI to a version that has CPU Microcode 0x129, still no luck

What else should i do?

I've reinstalled windows multiple times (like when i got a new ssd), so thats probably not the problem. I appreciate the reply tho.
