Windows 10: Games freezing after a couple minutes forcing me to restart my computer

My games keep freezing after a couple minutes of playing them forcing me to restart my computer, this has been happening for a few weeks now and I can't find any solution. It does only seem to happen on games that are more hardware heavy tho such as: Dying Light and Subnautica. I can play games such as The Escapists without any issues.My specs are:Ryzen 5 5600X 3.7GhzRx 580 4GB16GB DDR4 Ram550W LitePower PSUMAG TOMAHAWK B550I really need help if anyone is having the same issue
