Hi, I will start by listing my specs/parts:
i5 6600k 3.5GHZ
MSI Z170-a PRO Mobo
Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO
Gigabyte GTX 1070 8GB Windforce OC
EVGA 550Watt Gold PSU
2 x 8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 Ram
1TB WD HDD
120GB Samsung SSD
Windows 10 64Bit
So, I have recently built this PC and I had next to no problems with it until I started gaming on Ark. I have crashed at least 6-7 times whilst trying to play Ark - I have tweaked the graphics settings and it made no difference. My CPU temp stays around 33-37 Celsius and GPU temp at around 63 Celsius whilst playing Ark on epic settings. It has actually caused my PC to crash twice so far. My PC did freeze up once when I wasn't playing Ark, but I've had most the problems whilst trying to game. All my graphics drivers are up to date as I just installed them, I have my mobo driver installed, directX installed, windows all up to date etc. I even ran the Furmark test and my gpu stayed at around 67 Celsius whilst running that. I ran a diagnostic memory tool and it detected no problems. I checked in my BIOS that my RAM is being recognised, everything seems ok in the BIOS. At first I thought it was crashing as I had my PC hooked up to my TV via HDMI, but today I bought a new monitor and I'm still having problems. I literally have no idea why my PC may be crashing or why my client crashes while gaming. I should also note that 2 times I crashed on ark a weird buzzing sound was coming from the speakers. By the way, this is the first time I have ever built a PC on my own, is it possible that I haven't downloaded something vital or something may have gotten corrupted during download? Or that one of my computer parts is bad? I appreciate all help, thanks.

Bug check description: This indicates that a severe memory management error occurred.
This might be a case of memory corruption. More often memory corruption happens because of software errors in buggy drivers, not because of faulty RAM modules. This problem might also be caused because of overheating (thermal issue).
The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.
