PC Crash and Sudden Restart

PC:
Aorus Z790 Master
Intel 13900K
Corsair CPU Water Cooler
48 GB Corsair Memory
EVGA 3080TI - FTW3 Ultra

Had the system do a sudden restart 3 different times. The last time it was when I opened a vendor in town.
The game doesn’t freeze or otherwise show any issues before my screens suddenly go black and I see the BIOS screen.

Was having very bad stuttering which I thought was lag but after the 3 system crash I did some research and found it may be related to video settings.

I dropped the Frame rate in D4 from 150 to 100 and dropped all the other graphics settings from ultra to medium or low and all stuttering and crashes have stopped (so far). I only saw some slight stuttering in town after a portal in when I first started to move.

After the changes I was able to play around an hour without a crash whereas previously it would be about 15-20 minutes for a crash.
