custom game pc crashes randomly

I have very strong doubts that your power supply can handle 18 drives.
Given that there has to be at least 3 SATA boards to connect to them, a shortage of power could be the issue. I cannot come up with any valid reason for that many drives unless you are running a server farm. Consider moving half or more of them to an external, independently powered cabinet(s) and connect via network. For saved-game storage, network speed is not a problem.

Possibility #2: Overclocking, especially RAM timing, voltage or temperature issues.
Sometimes just a tiny bit too hot RAM or CPU or GPU may cause it to fail. In addition to the power supply, my computer has 2 140mm fans + 2 200mm fans all blowing into the case. Only the 3 fans attached to the liquid cooler radiator suck the air from the case and out the top. In other words, keeping things cool, not just the CPU, could be a problem.

I'm only a mild overclocker in that my processor (8/2T each) idles down to as low as 17mhz clock speed when not running heavy CPU software. My biggest concern is cooking the RAM with too much voltage. So I intentionally bought RAM that is at least 1 'step' faster than called for such as buying PC4-28800 16-19-19-39 vs the slower ram called for by the ASUS for my mobo.

this is my part list from the pc
PC Builder - Intel Core i9-10900K, GeForce RTX 3090, Phanteks Enthoo Elite ATX Full Tower - PCPartPicker
system is using idle 200 watt and in full stress test 650 watt ram never go over 60c whit fan never over 53c idle ram 42c
the harddrive i keep every time i upgrade i don't think it will be the pouwer supply i have ask the store the thinking maybe the cpu its also for them very strange maybe the sata controller DeLOCK PCI Express x2 Card > 10 x internal SATA 6 Gb/s serial-ata controller but its works on my older pc
i am thinking to go upgrade to 12900k if i can't fix this runing pc on 3600 mhz and ram on 2100 still reboots random

Does Device Manager show any flags ?
Are there entries in Reliability History which are related to the problem?

Could you check with ---Reliacility History ---and list the ---Problem Event Name & Application Name, which are found in ---view tech details ---.

Get rid of armoury as a first step it's known to cause crashes.

There's a BIOS setting you need to disable. https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/m...ual_EM_WEB.pdf p.74. Presumably there's a version available for your locale.
