Hi! I see you're dealing with a recurring issue with Rust and Grand Theft Auto V on Steam. Let's go through your troubleshooting steps again. You mentioned trying several fixes without success, even though the games still run fine for other titles. Your PC specs are clear—8GB RAM, 3350G CPU, RX570 GPU, and solid specs overall. Have you considered checking if the Steam client itself is outdated or corrupted? Sometimes reinstalling the client can resolve such problems. Also, ensure your system meets the minimum requirements for both games, especially RAM and graphics settings. If you're still experiencing crashes specifically in online lobbies, it might be related to network instability or server-side issues rather than local settings. Let me know if you'd like help with a fresh Steam setup or checking for updates!
I've noticed games receiving updates, like Space Engineers, leading to this problem. Always check the recommended specs on Steam rather than just the minimum requirements. I'm being honest—I wouldn't install anything below 16 gig of RAM with a G-series Ryzen. Also, didn't you mention the motherboard? You might want to look at the BIOS and see if CPU spread spectrum is disabled.
Examine the Windows Event Viewer to pinpoint the problem. Also, run CCleaner to resolve registry issues.
