Low Virtual Memory crash

Was playing tarkov and got a BSOD with Kernel Mode Heap Corruption. I checked the event viewer log and this is what I see. “Event 2004, Resource-Exhaustion-Detector.” “Windows successfully diagnosed a low virtual memory condition. The following programs consumed the most virtual memory: EscapeFromTarkov.exe (15012) consumed 51276963840 bytes, Firefox.exe (16108) consumed 839938048 bytes, and RadeonSoftware.exe consumed 550813696 bytes.” If I’m reading that correctly, is that saying tarkov was using 51gb of virtual memory? I don’t quite understand how or why that would happen. Any info on what I can do to ensure it doesn’t happen again, or if my pc is somehow causing it? It’s happened to me twice now, about a month apart. The one last month I had a ryzen 5 3600, 16gb ram, x570 mobo, and 5700xt sapphire pulse. I upgraded a week ago to 5800x3d processor and 32gb ram, so the error happened once before and once after updating. I’m also using a 250 gb ssd for my windows and separate 1tb ssd for my games I’ve played fairly frequently in between with no problems, so I’m just a little confused as to what is causing this. Any help is greatly appreciated.

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

That would indicate a memory leak.

Limit length of your gaming sessions. Close the game between sessions.
