System hangs while playing games.

Recently moved to bazzite. Little experience with Linux in general. Treat me as a newbie.
Sometimes while playing games (modded minecraft, World of warcraft, steam games like project zomboid) the system hangs for a couple minutes. Audio keeps repeating on loop the last 0.5-1s that was playing when this happened, nothing can be done, mouse won't even move. Usually system recovers after few minutes and goes back to working normally as if nothing happened but sometimes a hard reset is necessary.

I usually have YouTube playing on one screen (brave browser), Discord open on another and a game on the primary.
I noticed that this issue seems to hit harder with more demanding games such as modded minecraft.

System specs:
Ryzen 9 5900X
RTX 3070 ti
16gb Ram
3 monitors
