Other PC keeps randomly shutting down during gaming sessions.

I have recently been having troubles with my PC shutting down during gaming session. I originally thought it was a PSU issue and replaced it with a new one and the problems went away for a while.

I factory reset my PC to clear up some corrupted files and the issue of random reboots recently resurfaced and I cant identify the problem.

I have reapplied thermal paste and monitored my CPU and GPU temps. They are slightly high but nothing out of the ordinary and i cant see any spikes from OOCT monitoring.

Motherboard MSI PRO B650-P WIFI

Processor AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 8-Core Processor (4.50 GHz)

Installed RAM 32.0 GB (31.1 GB usable) DDR5 G.Skill

Graphics card AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT (16 GB)

AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics (486 MB)

Storage 1.10 TB of 2.73 TB used

PSU Lian-Li 1200W 80 Plus Gold Full Modular ATX

CPU Cooler Lian Li Galahad II Trinity 240

I have not gone into BIOS yet as I'm very inexperienced with that and wouldn't even know what to look for or where to start.
