Help needed please

Lately for some unknown reason my PC wont stop crashing no matter what I'm doing on the system. It boots fine and is fine until it goes under the tiniest of loads. I've tried updating my drivers and bios. I've even reset my PC to see if that would work and still it crashes about 3 mins into a game of Rainbow Six Siege. I dont know what it could be as everytime it crashes it gives me different errors but mostly it gives me the memory management error but I've tested my ram and there is no issue there. Please help I'm at a lose here 

System specs: 

Ryzen 7 2700x

MSI B450 Tomahawk

(2×8gb) Corsair Vengence RGB Pro DDR4 at 3200mhz

GTX 1060 3gb 

Corsair H100i pro aio

1tb Toshiba hard drive 

240gb Toshiba ssd 

650watt 80+bronze powersupply

ram in slots 2 and 4? xmp enabled? dram voltage 1.35?

Tiny load, the issue is cpu cooling. After a several minutes (at idle) probably ram.

 

RAM issues can prop up in various ways that don't preclude testing finding it, like the wrong speed or voltage. The CPU on the other hand could just be the cooler.

Yeah ram is in 2 and 4, xmp is enabled and voltage is 1.35

I know ways to check if it's my cooler but how could I properly check if it's my ram?

memtest86

 

but it does sound like a memory issue. try increasing soc voltage a bit, to 1.05 or 1.1

Run one stick at a time and see if the problem happens with every stick. If it happens with all, it's probably not the RAM (unless every stick is defective, which is pretty difficult to happen.)

 

Go into the BIOS and make sure you're only at factory defaults for the cpu/ram timings.

Ok I'll give it a try and see if it works

XMP is technically an overclock, so if the CPU can't take it, that could be it.

Yeah I've tried one at a time and the problem occured for both

I'd suggest looking at the CPU cooler then.

After disabling xmp and setting everything in my bios back to default it seems to be doing ok. I've run the same test I had done when it was crashing and it hasn't crashed so far. It clearly was a ram issue because my CPU never got hotter than 50°C. Hopefully now that I say its ol itll stay like this and not crash again. I think ima stay away from overclocking for the time being so this doesnt happen again. Thank you for helping me I was really at a loss and i never thought about disabling xmp

I'm as noob as they come when it comes to software stuff

so it was probably an unstable ram overclock. you can try again to enable xmp but then manually set the frequency from 3200 to 2933 and it should be stable.
