My No Man's Sky game crashes after about a minute of playing. It runs fine until suddenly, the graphics drop for a split second, then boom! The screen goes black. My AMD software also gives an error saying it stopped working from memory. I'm not sure what that means exactly. Sometimes this happens with No Man's Sky and gives me code 88970_0x9014F_ST76561198061749731.

I have tried everything possible. I changed settings, checked files on Steam, reinstalled the game, and updated my AMD Adrenalin driver to the newest version. Besides all that, I ran Memtest for over nine hours and found no errors there. Interestingly, newer save files take about 20 minutes to crash, while older ones only take a minute or two.

I am really stuck now and don't know what to do. I suspect it might be related to Vulkan because in the past, Red Dead Online had issues when I switched from Vulkan to Direct X in the settings. But since NMS doesn't let me change that setting anymore, I have no idea how to fix anything if that is the problem. Any help would be great.

Here is the computer's hardware list: it has an Intel i9-10900 processor that runs at a speed of 4.9GHz, paired with an AMD RX5700 graphics card and 16 gigabytes of RAM on DDR4 memory.
