On certain games I can play for like 5 minutes before a full black screen and system restart like Escape From Tarkov, but then for example on Warzone 2 I get a full crash within 5 seconds of pressing start. Everything runs fine when system idles or just have low programs like Discord and Chrome open. I've only had this CPU for right at 2 weeks and not been able to really use at all except for Chrome and Discord. I am able to play everything fine when I use my old CPU, this issue only occurs with this new CPU. I have tried fully installing new drivers and deleting the old ones, bought an AIO and temps have not reached over 60 degrees Celsius , I have fully reset the system to where there is only AMD software that I have installed and the game launcher but the issue occurs again. I have a 750W bronze certified PSU so it has plenty of power and 100's of extra watts if needed. At this point the only thing it seems is that it is just a faulty CPU. Any thoughts that could help me out I'm really stuck and tempted to just return it and hope that a new CPU will fix it.

Acts more like an incompatibility issue. 

Post all of your components in the build so the form can adequately diagnose possible causes.
