After like two years of running, I started to get these random crashes, where restart button doesn't work. Sometimes it happens every few months, sometimes twice a day. Finally managed to get WHEA error log. Could anyone hint if it's more of MB or PSU issue? CPU: i9-11900k, no OC, MB: ASUS TUF GAMING Z590-PLUS. Windows 11 installed. Bios updated to newest version long time ago, newest thing that was changed in the setup was, new nvme SSD's were added.

After running it through debugger got this data:
