Question Memory Management BSOD after I upgraded my CPU ?

[LoonyFriend]

I recently upgraded my cpu from Ryzen 3 3200G to Ryzen 5 5600. But every now and then I am getting BSODs even when doing the things that I usually do with Ryzen 3 3200G.

e.g. Multiple browser tab
Playing Dota 2 in highest Settings
Etc.

I even updated my BIOS to latest.

My rig was
Ryzen 5 5600
Asus A320m-K
Teamgroup Elite Plus 2x8gb 3200mhz
RX 580 2048sp 8gb

What seems to be the problem here?

120gb is only enough for windows now if you don't put anything else on drive.

Moving page file is just a bandaid. No guarantees the corruption doesn't spread to other files. Making that space available just means other things will go there.
You better off with a newer drive... its what I would do.

have you run chkdsk on the drive? might stop windows using some areas of it.

I put it in G like this
Initial: 24574
Max: 32768

What? No! Those are insane values.
Set to 4000MB initial, 16000MB max.

Oh I thought its supposed to be 1.5x to 4x of RAM

No. Those were recommended values back in days, when total ram amount was 256MB or 512MB.
They are completely ridiculous now with 16GB and 32GB of total ram.

Thank you. Turned it down to these values, still got no BSODs

Then problem seems to be solved.
Most likely - the issue was with pagefile being on your old failing 250GB Seagate drive.
