Random Freeze on kernel 6.8.2

Hi Everyone,
    My system is a desktop with Intel i9-12900k with the integrated GPU. My motherboard is B660 AORUS MASTER DDR4. Since my Linux kernel upgraded to 6.8, my computer starts to experience random hangs after running for 1-2 days. When this happens, the following is observed:

 

1. The power light on the chassis is still on, but no mouse/keyboard reaction, screen remains black.

2. The computer can no longer be pinged from other devices in the same LAN, i.e. Timeout

3. I was able to reboot the machine with Sysrq + B

I tried the following things:

1. Check the log: Nothing: The log got cut off before the hang, and no response is recorded

2. Tried to use

   linux-lts

   , this problem no longer appear under this kernel.

3. I tried kdump and pstore, but never got anything captured. I am using unified kernel image + secure boot, I am unsure if those things works in my setup

Can anyone give some guidance on how to solve this? Thanks.
