Windows crashes my computer after reinstallation.

Windows 11

I have a gaming PC with 16 gigs of DDR4, a 4070 Super, a Ryzen 9 5900X with 2 tb ssd, and a 1 year old NZXT PSU. I have had zero issues running windows up until a few months ago when I accidentally wiped my drive. Once I reinstalled windows using Linux to create a bootable usb, I was back in and going. I noticed that it didn’t install my WiFi drivers, which was odd since it had when I first built the computer. It worked fine for like 2 weeks before I noticed that it would start crashing (and by crashing I mean a blue screen that says “something went wrong”, before restarting a split second later, with it looping the last .5 seconds of audio). This would sometimes happen in the first hour, but quickly moved on to minutes. Sometimes it would boot me into the recovery manager, sometimes back to the sign in page. I have since switched over to Linux (first bazzite and now nobara), and have experienced zero issues running the same titles. Any ideas on what it might be? My temps look fine and I’ve already tried different RAM.
