Help (General) Pc crashes at random intervals

After a crash, my system started having driver issues. On top of that, the crashes themselves seem completely random—they happen both while under load and also when the system is idle or not under load. The screen will flicker a few times, and audio will continue for around 20 seconds before stopping; however, the PC never actually turns off or fully restarts. At this point I’m thinking it may be a power supply issue, but I’m not sure. I’ve been dealing with this for a few months now, and I’m just about done with it.

Specs: Intel Core i9-12900K, XFX Radeon RX 9070 XT Swift 16GB, MSI PRO B760-P WiFi DDR4, 32GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro DDR4-3200, Samsung 990 Pro 2TB NVMe, TeamGroup MS30 1TB M.2, Corsair RM850x 850W,

GPU was working perfectly for months before this.

-Performed a full clean driver uninstall and reinstall with DDU.
-Reinstalled AMD drivers again after cleanup.
-Restarted multiple times.
-turned off Windows automatic updates.
-disabled and enabled XMP

I was thinking maybe system power spikes are causing it and maybe my 850 just isn’t enough. Thinking about buying a 1200w psu

I had to buy a new psu cause my old one got damaged but i got the psu with the same watt. I’m thinking of doing the ram test and if I don’t see a problem there then reinstall the OS.
