I'm having an issue where when i go live on OBS it will black screen and crash the whole computer about 30-50 minutes into a stream.

This is one of the OBS error codes that I've managed to grab be fore it dies: Failed to recreate D3D11: Failed to create device (8876017C)

So that's a DirectX failure aka and graphics driver failure. what GPU do you have?

Nonetheless, it could still have an issue.

How would I go about fixing this if it were to be the issue?

I think the best thing to try first is a clean installation of the graphics drivers.

Do you have any spare, older GPUs you can swap out to see if it works?

I'm pretty sure that we can rule out hardware. I tossed it on different mobo with with a bigger power supply fresh graphics drivers, tossed my old 3080 on it to check and see if the 3090 was dying. Tried swapping a bunch of things around. Still keep getting the nvanc crash. I'm thinking there's software somewhere that's all of a sudden not wanting to play nicely.

Sorry for late response. Have you tried reinstalling OBS? or at least "repair" it with their installer? Regardless, it's a graphics driver failure. So if it's a must I'd just reinstall windows.
