You have major problems, i notice you create a new thread constantly relating to the same problem.
Get a picture of your power supply label, make sure it is clear.
80% ram utilization while idle
hey guys recently I've been experiencing crashes to realize that when i open task manager that there is 80% being used (ram) while idle and when i check it says my ram speed is only 400 if i were to upgrade to 8gb of 3000mhz will the utilization go down (btw i just realized that it was 400)

@PandaH05 - Please stop creating new threads about the same problem. It won't help get answers, if anything, it'll make it harder for us to help you. Focus on one thread and I'd advise you close the others, if necessary put a link in the other threads to the one you want to focus on. If you keep opening new threads for the same thing, the mods may well shut them down.

What are your system specs? Please add them...
It is likely overheating or something along those lines...
It is likely overheating or something along those lines...
That card is being held back by the cpu at 1080p....
What specific model power supply?
What specific model power supply?
The label should give you some details... how old is it?

I haven't seen any other possible posts you've made of the issue, so next set of questions for you.
When you say "crashing"....
Does the game just crash to the desktop?
Does the system hang (game locks up or screen goes black and nothing responds) so you need to power the computer off?
Does the computer power off completely (you have to manually push the power button to turn it back on)?
Does the computer power off for just a second or so and restart on it's own?

So the game just ends (.exe isn't running and back to desktop?), or does it kick you out to the lobby and the game is still running?

You should look into the Event Viewer to see if it's giving any specific errors for the application closing. Check the application logs in the event viewer next time the game crashes to desktop, hopefully you'll see an error that's linked to the game itself or maybe it could be a video driver issue - this way at least you can narrow down the error and search from there to see if there's a fix.
Type EVENT VIEWER in the search bar in W10.
Google is an amazing tool.
EDIT: You are on the latest GPU driver, right? Nvidia released one the day the BR version was released...and i assume when the game was released too...

Hmm, low current... not good, im suspecting the gpu or psu at this rate, sounds like a Crash to desktop which could be gpu driver.
Yikes... 29A total on the 12V for a 600W PSU?? Hopefully that isn't an actual true dual rail or that may be the issue. Your card uses up to 165W which is 13.75A... one rail has 14A the other 15A... if there is anything worthwhile plugged in along with it, I can see the card/PSU flip out....again, assuming it is a true dual rail PSU (meaning there are actual limits on the rails).
If it isn't the issue, I'd get a new PSU pronto. Hell even a Corsair CX650M would be better than this unit.

Being a 980 it might use more than that.Yikes... 29A total on the 12V for a 600W PSU?? Hopefully that isn't an actual true dual rail or that may be the issue.

But yeah the corsair should be able to handle it...
Here's a review of that psu
Corsair CX650M PSU Review
Corsair's CX series consists of both non-modular and semi-modular units. It was recently upgraded with new members and improved versions of older ones. The CX650M is the third strongest member of the line, featuring 650W capacity and a 40°C rating.

It is listed at a 165W card. Could be a highly overclocked card from the factory though...
It will handle it. Easily. No should about it.

Power supply is sold as a 600 watt unit, but it only provides 29 amps (348 watts) on 12 volt and limits its self to 140 watts on +5V and +3.3V which gives it a capacity of 488 watts! OP, you may have just bought this PSU, but it is an over rated OLD design. (when I say old design, think early '90's automobile) It proudly displays ATX 12V 2,0, which was approved in 2003. We're up to ATX12V v2.4 which was approved in 2013.
If you look at that CX650M, it provides 54 Amps on its 12V rail, which is 648 watts!
Do I think it's the PSU's fault? Maybe. You have a collection of parts that are getting long on the tooth and it makes it hard to figure out what's causing this problem.
After you install the latest drivers...., if that doesn't fix it, lets look at your GPU. What is the exact model? I just looked at the review of the Gigabyte GTX 980 G1 Gaming 4, which can pull 204 watts or 17 amps during gaming which is more power than your 12V2 can provide.
