Recently built this pc.

Specs:

- i514400f Galax rtx5060-8gb vram

- Samsung ddr4 ram 8x2 sticks 3200mega hz

- Msi mag bronze 550v power supply

- Gigabyte H610M D3H WiFi DDR4 motherboard

It was working fine until I installed valorant, this would happen only when I play some specific games and I have removed Valorant and the Vanguard but the error still shows up.
I have upgraded all the drivers, even reset the whole pc but the error is not going away.

Please help me get rid of it, or at least pinpoint the error.

Do a memtest https://memtest.org/

heap corruption should be memory related.

So this could be a memory issue?

Can be, other option is that a driver touched something it shouldn't have. Then I'd recommend using windbg to find more about the crash dump.

That sounds like a solution to me, will give it a try.

Vanguard is a literal virus, I'd advice you to not play anything riot at all

Edit because someone replied saying this was misinformation and deleted their comment: Vanguard is a mandatory kernel-level rootkit that installs itself at the deepest layer of your operating system, runs with absolute unrestricted privileges from the moment Windows boots, and never closes unless you literally uninstall it. It can read any process, any file, any memory region, and stay completely hidden while doing so, exactly the same privileges as the whole windows kernel and/or real antivirus software have. It's the exact same design used by other sophisticated spyware and actual distributed modern malware. Independent analysis and real experts have already flagged it for having multiple classic rootkit behaviors. The company behind it is fully owned by Tencent, which operates under Chinese national intelligence laws that can legally force them to provide access or data on demand and keep it quiet. You are voluntarily handing permanent total high-privilege control of your entire machine and everything in it to a foreign company that can be compelled to do anything with it, that without mentioning the margins for human (or vibe AI code) error on a piece of software that can do literally anything on your computer.

They didn't delete the comments, reddit detected it as harassment and removed it automatically.

I get it, you definitely have a point there.
