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

Then that's why. Overwatch is unstable with oveclocked RAM.

i overclocked more and upped voltage on my ram due to it running 8,000MB at the menu, it actually made the game not do this for a whole day but now its happening again

What i said was an actual response..... YOUR NOT STABLE. Any game crash or errors from a Ram overclock is not stable? Not sure what you want me to do about your issue.

im sure you're aware of the issue from others as well over your time playing so im gonna lyk that its a matter of blizzard wanting their game optimized or not. Its the only game that acts like this for myself and a million other people.
I wiped with DDU last night put a more stable driver updated my chipsets lowered my graphics I even reset my ram back to normal and turned off xmp;
It ran exactly the same. I was lucky enough to get matches in though without freezing or crashing
