My PC just blacks out during the rat swarms in A Plague Tale: Requiem on my ASRock A320M, why?

Every time thousands of rats flooded the screen, my PC would just die as if someone pulled the plug—the unpredictability was honestly anxiety-inducing. The VRM on the ASRock A320M-HDV R4.0 was hitting 98-105℃ whenever the CPU spiked past 85W, triggering a hard safety shutdown. I wasted time swapping to a higher-wattage PSU, but the crashes persisted, which was incredibly frustrating. I eventually went into the BIOS and hard-capped the PL1 power limit to 65W and set the fans to Full Speed. In OCCT, the core voltage stayed locked between 1.18-1.22V without those scary drops. I did lose about 10 FPS after the 65W cap, but I managed to claw that performance back by tweaking the PBO curve. VRM temps are now held at 82-88℃; the fans sound like a jet engine, but at least it doesn't crash anymore. The input response feels way more tactile now.
