Nvidia GPU - freeze on startup

Greetings, I've been having issues lately with my PC booting and freezing either before login screen or right after.
I was having these issues on arch with KDE Wayland but it seems it's haunting me to bazzite. Without changes it either freezes shortly after boot or it doesn't for the rest of the runtime.

Cannot launch a tty at all so I wanted to know what steps I can take in order to get the logs in order to troubleshoot this which may be some issue with latest Nvidia driver.

Tried emergency mode but journalctl has no persistence.

Also, system responds to CAPS/NumLock toggles
