Hey there folks, 

I have an Issue with my new PC,

Here are the PC Specs:
AMD Ryzen 9 3900x
RTX 2080 SUPER
32GB DDR 4 G. Sill Ripjaws V Black -3200

So problem:

The Service Host Tasks keep eating up Memory on my pc.
When I boot my Pc, its normal, but they continuously keep getting bigger and bigger. Until they all have 100mb+ and my Pc runs out of memory and crashes....

I don't get it. Does RAM usage grow to 32GB? Might be some virus disguising as svhost.exe.

I'd probably reinstall windows even though that seems drastic.
