It's random when it will freeze, blackscreen and then audio stutters
It can range from anywhere from every 30m to an hour or happening after about 5+ hours of continuous use with no problem
Usually it just black screens and the audio stutters, the PC is still on and the screens are still on and I just hard reboot it and it works until it happens again
There are some weird times where it freezes and then comes back and pc is working normal until it happens
Or when it freezes, comes back and my second monitor is frozen but everything is still working and I have to close VLC on my second monitor and everything is fine
And then there are sometimes where it freezes and blue screens, usually THREADSTUCK in driver error and one time uncontrollable error something
This is hella annoying because it's happening more frequently and if I knew what part of my computer I needed to fix, it would make it easier
Note that it is connected to a UPS that is pure sine-wave and I have tried connecting it directly into the wall

Like tonight for example early in the day it would shut off every 40m, and then it lasted for about 4+ hours without shutting off and now it's turning off every 5m after reboot

Hi,

Most likely a defective PSU / GPU / hard drive.

First download hard disk sentinel trial to check you hard drive.
test with a know working PSU to rule out the original one.
Monitor your gpu temps with msi afterburner
