Are you overclocking the CPU at all?  This kind of thing is common when overclocking the CPU with too low a voltage.

What kind of RAM do you have?  Speed?  Timings?  Brands?

Mismatched RAM can also cause this and all sorts of strange issues, especially when overclocking, or on a previously overclocked CPU.  That chip is a bit old, and it's IMC may not be able to handle the mismatch any more.

You might want to disable any overclocks using by loading BIOS defaults and pull the 4 gigger (if you are running 4GB and 8GB sticks), or if you have three 4GB sticks, pull the one that is in single-channel out, and see if it continues.

If that doesn't fix things, try a different CPU chip (try using the same model), and if that doesn't work, try a different GPU, and if that doesn't work, it might be the motherboard or PSU.

I've never overclocked my cpu so i think that's not the issue here

I have three 4gb sticks. I restored my pc today to see if anything change.If not, i'll try to remove one of my 4gb stick and see how it goes

why 3 4gb sticks? you run async channel - that can cause problems

especially if you push it to limits

btw - with 18.12.2 i also got bluescreens (mainly because of my risky ram oc) etc
you should try 18.12.3 and test again

PC: R7 2700X @PBO + RX 580 4G (1500MHz/2000MHz CL16) + 32G DDR4-3200CL14 + 144hz 1ms FS P + 75hz 1ms FS
