This means the computer stopped working unexpectedly, possibly due to a software issue or hardware problem.

Just verify and reset overclocking, including removing the XMP profile. Experiment with different GPU drivers—some versions may break games. After that, update your BIOS, install a new OS on another drive if possible, and check if the issue persists. If it doesn’t repeat there, you’re on the right track; if it does, proceed further. These steps might not fix everything since the problem is limited to one game. Finally, try the game with a clean save file instead of your usual one.
The dump files resemble RAM behavior. Each file points to a different issue, similar to how RAM randomly stores data and can be affected by various programs or drivers. Have you recently replaced your RAM or been using multiple sticks since installation? More sticks make it harder for the memory controller to manage them. A 3600Mhz speed works well with two sticks but may become a challenge with four. If the system remained stable for over a month using four sticks, the problem might not be related. For testing, I avoid memory testers since many faulty sticks pass tests. It's better to check one at a time or test pairs with four sticks. Refer to the manual for slot recommendations, typically slots 2 and 4 from the CPU socket. If a pair fails, you can narrow it down further, though the manufacturer usually requires the whole kit for warranty reasons. Lifetime warranty applies to RAM. Freezing isn't a typical symptom, making it uncommon. Generally, this is something worth testing.
Did you incorporate any additional sticks or receive a fresh set of four? If so, it might indicate a compatibility problem. Matching the model number alone doesn't guarantee identical RAM specifications. When you upgraded from an existing kit, examine the image and the code stamped on the bottom left of the sticker. This isn't a standard version number but rather identifies the manufacturer, chipset type, and memory capacity. If the codes differ between the old and new kits, they're essentially unrelated. For a brand-new four-stick configuration, reduce the clock speed. The officially supported maximum speed by the CPU depends on whether the RAM is single-rank or dual-rank. Single-rank uses chips on one side, while dual-rank has them on both sides. I suspect Corsair doesn't clearly label whether a stick is single or dual rank on the label, and the heat shield on your RAM makes it hard to discern visually. With dual-rank RAM, the top supported speed reaches 2666MHz, compared to 2933MHz for single-rank.
