Upgraded Pc restarts randomly

Hey, 

So I have a gaming Pc I built, recently upgrade CPU and GPU, and upgraded to Win 11, the PC will randomly restart even when just watching a Youtube vid.  Sometimes  it restarts, gets to pin login, then restarts. sometimes its working for days on end, then restarts.

I clean installed Win 11 3 days ago(my original build was a Amd CPU and a nVidia GPU, now both are Amd) , only have Steam and an Antivirus installed.  Made sure GPU/CPU drivers are up to date. But it's still doing it.. My other though is maybe PSU.

 

PC spec:

Asus Rog Strix b350f gaming motherboard - BIOS 6042

32GB Corsair Vengence LPX 2666MHz Ram

Amd Ryzen 7 5800X CPU

Xfx Speedster qick319 7800XT graphics

Samsung Evo 980 / 970 m.2 (both)

Ocz Agility 3 SSD.

Corsair 750 psu (unsure which one without taking out, but is 80plus gold rated)

Which CPU cooler? CPU temperatures?

 

Have you tried the latest Bios? There are 6063 and 6203 available, both newer than 6042.

 

The exact PSU info is needed (model, age, ...), seems you're going top need to open the PC and check.

Ok so psu is corsair rme 750 roughly 6 years maybe but really not sure. 
cpu cooler nzxt kraken x62. 
temps fluctuate (38.6c - 62 c) but are within reasonable range. Like I say it restarts straight away, if it was a temp I’d expect to have to wait for it to cool to come back on.

Bios update is on latest now 6203, but as it takes ages to see if it’s worked due to random time🤷🏼‍♀️
