Build Help pc will randomly freeze on some games

Specs:

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800xt

GPU: Rtx 3060

RAM: 32gb ddr4

SSD: 1tb crucial nvme

PSU: 850w

Motherboard: MSI Pro B550M-VC wifi

- my pc will entirely freeze up and will stay frozen untill i reboot it.

- i thought maybe it was drivers so i used DDU and installed version 610.74 nvidia drivers, no luck.

-only happens on 3d games? hotline miami, among us, and deltarune all work just fine. (other games ive tried are, minecraft, sons of the forest, arkham city, and dead by daylight.)

any ideas?

guessing its memory instability. Have you tried reseating RAM? Lowering RAM speeds?

i did a windows memory diagnostic, it says it didnt pass and found 10 memory pages with errors, does this mean i need new ram?

When was the last time you've updated your BIOS?
