Windows 10: PC restarts when playing games, audio drivers break

Over the past couple days I've been running into an issue where when playing games my pc will randomly restart. When it comes back on, the audio drivers break and my wired headphones are no longer detected. I have to reinstall my audio driver to fix it. I did that just now and it crashed again after 10 minutes. All my parts are brand new with the exception of the hard drive. I also very recently reinstalled windows. I'm also fairly certain it isn't an overheating problem.Ryzen 7 7700XPRO b650-P WIFI32gb DDR5RTX 4070ti850W psu
