OMEN 15.6 inch Gaming Laptop PC 15-en1000 (2L1F2AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

I have had my laptop for over half a year (HP OMEN 15-en1996nd)  and I'm noticing that my gaming experience is worsening.
Not only gaming but also the whole laptop freezes at random moments.
This is getting really annoying and I'm trying to fix this issue.
I've tried multiple steps -> Using NVIDIA Control Panel, updating drivers, updating BIOS, changing power plan, hard battery reset, and lowering in-game graphics.
None of the above have helped me so far.
Is there anyone that can help me with this issue?
