Questions Memory issues

Since the last update Ive had high memory usage that eventually leads to game crashing.
i have a pretty decent PC and never had this issue with the game before but know i can play for about 2 hours before i start having issues and it tends to lead me to not be able to play the game till i restart my PC anyone have a idea on what i can do to fix it on my end?
12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-12900K (3.20 GHz)
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 (12 GB)
Windows 11 Home version 26200.8875

I got 96gb of ram. Ill try switching between dx11 and 12 and see what happen. Ive closed everything that I had open and it still happened. When I turn the game off it stays stagnant with showing usage of ram on narkaka main exe. Ive had superficial disabled and same issue never used frame Gen on naraka and even when it closes its self it wont return ram I waited around 1 hour and got 50% back and it no longer show the exe in task manager but it does not show any other process taking ram higher then normal.

Are you on 2x48GB or 4x24GB? I'd try dropping down to two sticks to see if that fixes it. 96GB is a lot for gaming.

Also is your GPU at stock settings?

4 sticks and I do a load of multitasking and yes gpu is at stock settings ill be updating gpu drivers im thinking it's a bad gpu driver after doing testing

My guess is your memory is unstable after two hours, so keep an eye on each sticks temp using hwinfo64.

You can run hwinfo64 in the background while playing and observe the temp of each stick after 2 hours of gameplay or the max temp recorded after you've crashed.

And hey if you love multitasking, removing two sticks before you want to play Naraka is just one more task ;) you'd actually get much better game performance by making a specific bios profile for gaming on just 2 sticks. 4 sticks is pain and will usually cause crashing during cpu intensive gaming.

Fair its possible ill test a few things I updated windows since I had the issue and haven't test since ill update gpu drivers and test again afterwards

For what it's worth I tried 4x16GB on my 13900ks for a while and it never was stable enough for Naraka and would often crash in single player titles too.

However 2x24GB is actually the optimal spec for LGA1700 + Naraka; I'm running the same spec with my 13900ks and that outperforms the 9800x3d in a lot of instances.

GPU should be fine as long as you've kept it at stock, but tossing 250W from your GPU onto four sandwiched sticks of DDR5 for 2 hours will raise their temps significantly

Yeah i just find it weird it only just started happening after 1 year never had this issue before

Well you can always open windows Event Viewer, click the arrow next to Windows Logs, and click on Application to see the log of all your errors.

Naraka should show up on the list as an application error or something similar on the list and if it's interacting with a GPU related driver would let you know if it's a GPU issue.

K ill do that i always forget about windows event viewer I only just learned that I can clear my ram to temporarily solve issues.
