6700xt Black Screen Issues

I have a 6700xt, I have had the same exact issue for months now, despite always updating my driver's . Whenever I am gaming it could take minutes or even hours but it never fails that my screen will go black. I can still hear sound for a few more seconds until everything freezes. Eventually my screen will come back on and I will get two error messages that state default radeon wattman settings have been restored and we detected a driver timeout has occured on your system. I have done everything I can possibly think of to fix this issue. Brand new monitor, cables, ram, power supply, SSD, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers and made sure they were always up to date, I even did a clean install of windows and wiped everything. Nope still having the same issues. I'm getting really fed up with it. Does anyone know of any fix? I play world of warcraft if that matters at all. Using driver version 22.11.2

Don't know if this will work for you, but some other driver issues were fixed:

Fix for hardware accelerated apps crashing radeons since 22.5 -> https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/yvyqc7/disabling_multiplane_overlay_mpo_fixed_all/

Here are instructions, how to disable Windows updates https://www.minitool.com/news/enable-disable-automatic-driver-updates-windows-11.html

But after disabling updates, you need to DDU driver and reinstall driver. The difference is, this time (after disabling updates), Windows won't run over you driver installation.
