PC freezes randomly

I recently got a new PC with an RX 7800 XT and 7800X3D. Since I got it, I have had plenty of issues. Several times, when I have left my computer on for a long time, I will see a "driver timeout" alert. Other times, my PC has just froze in the middle of something, taking so long to unfreeze that I just restart my computer, and come back to the computer freezing on the Windows welcome screen. It freezes on the welcome screen twice in a row and then takes me to Windows recovery, where if I boot into Windows 11 it works again. And today, for the first time since I got the PC, it my screen just completely blacked out. The same procedure of freezing and taking me to Windows recovery happened and now I'm writing this. Along with these issues, when I download the current drivers (the driver date of those is 12/05/24) Task Manager says that my driver date is 11/27/24. I have tried deleting the device and uninstalling drivers in Device Manager, disabling my 7800X3D's integrated graphics in Device Manager, which one person suggested for another person that had the same issue as me, and I'm genuinely tired of this. PC plays games perfectly fine and has never frozen while playing one, but sometimes as soon as I close said game the PC will freeze. Other times it freezes randomly. And sometimes it freezes when I try to open an app.
