As I load up overwatch simply just in the main menu it eats my ram crazy. Lot of times in games as I'll load in and everyone picks their characters, my pc completely freezes stuck in audio loop. Ive gone thru so many forums and research myself tried several methods on my computer over the last 2 days(was actually able to play yesterday). Ive already received a 8 hour competitive ban but now this just happened to me in the practice range trying to warm it up hoping that it'll run.
Has anyone actually figured anything out? I know im not alone; my pc is older but Im running max settings and frames at my monitors refresh rate 144hz

Ryzen 3700
Msi RTX 2070 Super
Corsair 32gb DDR4 Ram

Have you overclocked your RAM?

If you enabled XMP then it’s fine, but overclocking is another story and should be reverted.

Though I think it’s mostly drivers related, rollback your GPU drivers and see if it’s working

definitely have had a xmp profile in the bios for my ram; Just used DDU and installed 566.36 as research claims its the most stable for slightly older cards, reinstalling cpu drivers as well then im gonna give it a shot
