I just set up my gaming rig a couple of days ago, and things were going smoothly until I installed Valorant. At first, everything seemed fine, but soon I started experiencing Blue Screens of Death (BSOD) while just idling or playing - usually after 20-40 minutes. One of the errors I encountered was related to "memory management." I recently ran several stress tests on the CPU, RAM, and GPU. The CPU and GPU tests went well without issues, but when testing the RAM alone, I did see it peak at 85% utilization. Now, I'm running into multiple BSODs when trying to install games, with my Event Viewer mostly showing kernel-system error 41. Here are my specs:
- R7 5700X
- RX 6600
- 16GB RAM 3600Mhz (XMP enabled)
- Corsair CX650W
I've shared some pictures of the BSOD errors I managed to capture, but I missed the memory management one as it happened suddenly. Help would be greatly appreciated!

You might want to give this a shot: open Command Prompt as an admin and run the command 'sfc /scannow'. This will check for any corrupted files that might be causing these crashes. Good luck!
First off, it’s crucial to grab your dump files so we can properly analyze the BSOD issues you're experiencing. If you can boot into Windows normally or via Safe Mode, check the C:WindowsMinidump directory for dump files. If you find any, zip the folder and upload it to a site like MediaFire or Catbox. The more dump files you have, the better for troubleshooting. If there are none, try following a guide to set your system to create Small Memory Dumps.
