System Freezes/Overheats on Idle - AMD GPU, KDE Wayland, Kernel 6.12/6.6.94

not the solution, but this might help to avoid damaged files and to turn off the computer even if the screen is blank:

There will be some infos in the logs - can you provide the input e.g. from “journalctl -b1 -r -p warning”

As there is no swap defined for your system - you should enable swap (btw: this is a good advice for nearly every system) and figure out if this changes something. And - following the instructions on the next link - check if suspend / hibernation etc. is configured correctly.
