Subject: Apex suddenly crashing after a few minutes – PC restarts

Hi everyone, Two days ago, Apex Legends started crashing suddenly on my PC. I've been playing for years without any issues, and it was running fine the day before. But now, when I launch the game, it runs for about 5 minutes before the screen freezes and my entire PC restarts. Here are my specs: OS: Windows 10, GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-core processor. Things I've already tried: Updating and reinstalling GPU drivers, Verifying game files, Reinstalling the game, Checking and monitoring hardware temperatures, Adjusting in-game settings. None of these have resolved the issue. Has anyone experienced something similar or have any suggestions on what could be causing this? Thanks for any help in advance!

    I'm essentially having the same issue except about 2min into any game mode it freezes on and off in 5 second intervals. I can't communicate on Discord either for the 5 seconds it freezes on, then off, then on, then off. The only solution is to close Apex Legends. I get every connectivity error symbol at the top right hand side of my screen when I'm loaded into a match. I see the first symbol when I enter the ship after character selection. This issue only happens on Apex Legends as I'm not having issues playing Call of Duty or doing regular tasks.
