Question Game Is Freezing/Crashing

[Yoinked]

I've been playing Rust over the past couple of months and I have a problem with my game:

Whenever I go into settings my game freezes
Whenever I tab out of my game it freezes when I attempt to get back in the game
Game regularly disconnects me / freezes (More frequent recently)

Side note on the freezing: When I freeze I just wait for the 'Stopped Responding' tab to go away. Once this is gone and I in the game everything from the whole time I have been frozen plays in a bout 5 second (If that makes sense) and my game freezes again but this time it always disconnect me from the server with reasons like 'Stop Responding'. When I disconnect and I am in the server screen my game freezes straight away and it take time before I can rejoin again, when I rejoin my game usually freezes

Game freezes when clicked on in loading screens
Frequent lag spikes
Long load times
I get around 50 FPS on beautiful while my friend with a 1060 6GB gets around 80.

My game is just a mess, non of my other friends have this problem. I currently have a Zotac GTX 1070 Mini and it's suppost to be good for these types of games. I don't usually have this problem with other games and it takes me about 5 minutes to get back into a game after one freeze, this is highly annoying as a lot of the time it happens in fights. I have a Ryzen 5 1600, I am not sure if this is my problem. I do not think it is my SSD (Which I have it downloaded on) as it is fairly new, I think I got it in December but I get very long load times, my friend can load in in about 40 seconds with his SSD and mine takes around 3 with my similar performing SSD. I play my game on simple graphics most of the time and it does not change much if I crank it up or down.

Yes I have updated my drivers
Yes I did try putting my settings on the lowest
My GPU usually runs at 100% when on rather high graphics

PC:
Zotac GTX 1070 Mini
Ryzen 5 1600
8 GB RAM - 2400 Mhz
Sandisk SSD Plus 480GB
1TB Harddrive

Maybe try reinstalling the game.
Have you tryed updateing the BIOS?

What do you mean by updating the BIOS? And I will try reinstalling the game after I check this video out that's on my problem

Is that the ONLY game freezing/crashing on your system, which is Rust, or even other PC titles behave in a similar manner. Try to do a CLEAN re-install of the game, if need be.

It is the only game that does this for me, I've reinstalled it and I am going to test it out

I know this is a bit old now but my problem is still not fixed, in fact it has got worse. My game is becoming unplayable and the only thing I can see is the problem is my RAM or hard drive.

Then, the issue lies with the GAME itself. Have you tried asking this over at the official RUST forums as well/facepunch ? Also, which PSU are you using to power up your system ?
