Windows 11 22H2 Hard lock and internitant Blue Screen

Hello, I am at my wit's end with this issue. Help!

My system
Ryzen 9 5950X
Gigabyte X570S Aorus Master
32GB HyperX Predator
Samsung 980 Pro (C:)
Samsung 970 Evo Plus (D:)
WD Black (E:)

I've been having this issue for a few months now.  First it presented as the system was asleep and would not wake any more require a hard reset.  Thinking it was some power management issue I set the system to no sleep and do not shut of the displays.

What I then found was that I'd come back and the clock on the lock screen would still be on a time when I last left the system hours ago. Mouse and keyboard unresponsive.  Hard reset and system would be ok. for a while, if I left it long enough to auto lock the screen it would freeze. Or I'd come back to a blue screen error of DPC Watchdog Timeout.

Then it froze while I was browsing the net, no other processes running except for Edge.

So far, I have tried Updating the Bios, Updating the Firmware on the 980 Pro, Replacing the Motherboard, Memory, Video card, the 970 Evo, I've managed to keep it running long enough to back up the system before formatting a fresh install of win 11 22h2 from January, December, November, October and September. which throughs the same issue prior to actually installing any drivers etc.

So far, I have only been able to keep it from crashing in two instances:

  1. Run a Video Game always, or some other long cpu/gpu intensive processes.
  2. Clean install of the September build of windows 11 22h2 (GA release)

Currently I am about to install the AMD Chipset drivers from AMD as someone else mentioned that in another post here.

Anyone else have any Ideas?  AMD? Microsoft?

So updated chipset drivers did not help.

And now it's started to hard lock while Windows is in the preload phase.  aka bios boot logo with the spinning wheel under it.

You mentioned everything except the Make & Model of your GPU card.

Currently it is a Radeon RX 580, but I usually have a Nvidia 1660 Ti installed. But I've had the issue with both.
