Hello, I will start describing when I first experienced the issue.
One day I decided to change my screen resolution to 1680x1050, which is my monitors resolution ( I previously had 1440x900 because my graphics card didn't give me option to switch to 1680x1050) and I did it by making a Custom Resolution ( option ) in my AMD Radeon Settings.
Ever since the resolution change, every game I have played has experienced FPS drops, and I'm having issues with my Memory. I've been getting problems with Blue SCreens of Death, describing errors like: Pnf Corrupt Page and Corrupt Hardware ( i cant remember exact code).
I have switched back to 1440x900 but the problems are still here. Please help.

Here is link of Task Manager showing off my Memory usage when i have Mozilla Firefox on: https://imgur.com/a/tGD6nro

I'm assuming from your screen shot, you're on Windows 10. It might also be Windows 8/8.1. In either case it's known as a memory leak and the best solution out of if on Windows 10 is to perform a repair install(if that fails, reinstall OS after creating bootable installer using Windows Media Creation Tools). If on Windows 8/8.1, you're going to need to reinstall the OS.
