I'm experiencing crashes playing various games that seem to manifest differently. One game I had a bluescreen with this error log:
The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x0000003d (0xfffff804623419c8, 0xfffff804623411e0, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000). A dump was saved in: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\092424-14687-01.dmp. Report Id: 032ddbd2-5b60-47a8-8343-8692374c768b.

I also commonly see exception code 0xc0000005. For this game the game crashes but the game itself recognizes to send a crash report. Example from event viewer:

I've tried reinstalling graphics drivers and reinstalling multiple games. Next thing I will probably try is updating my bios. Can anybody help me diagnose this issue? Feels like some memory access issue.
