Hi, I built a PC a month ago, but it is completely stable. When I start playing video games it throws errors, mostly INVALID_POINTER_READ_c0000005 . They happen every half hour or maybe less, and with different games. I have tried several things, turning EXPO on/off, lowering the RAM frequency, updating drivers, updating BIOS, disabling the integrated GPU, etc. Can you help me to find the issue? I add my specifications and some error reports:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X
Motherboard: B650E PG Riptide WiFi
RAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR5 32GB (2x16) 6000 CL30 (CMK32GX5M2B6000Z30)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER (recicled from previous PC)
PSU: Cooler Master V1100 SFX Platinum

to have a look what the problem could be:
run userbenchmark.com and post the http link of your result, e.g. https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/28977730

Reset the BIOS by jumper clrCMOS or JBAT or similar (eventually you will have to set the boot priority correctly after that)

check windows integrity
open the command prompt as administrator and type DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

clean boot
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/929135/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows


check the memory by running memtest.org usb autoinstaller (bootable USB flash drive)


check the hard drive for errors with its manufacturer´s tool and if available, update the firmware

use ddu uninstaller and reinstall the latest graphics driver
 
Nothing works, I made a memory test and it passes but if i run Prime95 crashes when i run a test with memory checking. Do you have any idea of how to try next?

thank you
