BSOD's during use, not during safe mode, and during Windows install

I built my first computer over a decent period of time, with my build now including a Ryzen 5 1600x, Asrock AB350M, 2X8 gb Ballistix Sport BLS8G4D26BFSB at 2666, a Power Color RX 580, a Seagate HDD, and now an Adata SSD (see explanation later). I gradually added onto my build, so my issues with BSOD's are largely unkown, time frame-wise.

I didn't keep track of my first issues, so that is one trouble I've had with troubleshooting. I've had BSOD's during use, especially the Memory_Management, but others frequently arise. Now the PC doesn't last 10 minutes before a blue screen. I have no issues with crashes in safe mode, so I thought it must me driver/software, so I decided to buy and SSD to improve performance and create a new boot drive. I wanted to just reset my hard drive, since it was full of stuff that wouldn't be too hard to reinstall, and it would surely get rid of my problems if they were software/driver related. I tried doing a reset today, but I got an unusual BSOD during the process that booted me back to my Windows that I was trying to reset. Today I've had Page_Fault_In_Nonpage_Area when trying to reset my HDD. I also tried booting from my Windows 10 media USB, but I got the same (I'm not entirely sure which code this one was) when I tried to install Windows 10 onto the SSD.

I also tried clean uninstalling the video drivers using the tool stickied on the Windows 10 page, reinstalled, but blue screens persisted within 10 minutes of use. I could try more drivers, except, to me, it's odd that crashes happened when booted off of the USB. Are the two BSOD's unrelated?

So I don't know how to get past this roadblock, or where to start to get past this. I truly wouldn't mind resetting my drives and starting clean on the SSD, but I get blue screens before I can finish. This is my first PC build, so any help would be much appreciated. I can post anything else as needed. Thanks.

download memtest86 and use it to make a Bootable USB. Run it on 1 stick at a time, up to 8 passes (not necessarily all at once as it can heat up PC). Only error count you want is 0, anything higher likely shows you the reason for the errors. Remove/replace any sticks that get errors.

Safe mode doesn't push hardware as much so while it can mean it is a driver, it can also be hardware that isn't being worked as hard in safe mode.

Can you follow option one on the following link - here
and then do this step below: Small memory dumps - Have Windows Create a Small Memory Dump (Minidump) on BSOD

that creates a file in c windows/minidump after the next BSOD
copy that file to documents
upload the copy from documents to a cloud...

Ok, thank you. I ran it and got a bunch of errors, so what do I do next? Is it more likely/possible to determine if the problem is related to bad modules or compatibility? Do I not understand how Safe Mode works, because I thought it was a strong indicator that the issue was software/driver related? Do I look to replace the modules or motherboard, or is it something I can fix?

Dumps will tell us if it is a driver.
