@puzzlezaddict no problem, thanks for getting back to me. Earlier today (before I saw you reply) I looked up game crash problems caused by atiumd64.dll and found one on steam with similar case about The Witcher . It suggested downloading a newer version of the problematic dll and simply replacing it. IT WORKED. So I basically downloaded a fresh atiumd64 dll  and so far it has worked smoothly.

Should I do the steps you just mentioned just to be sure or should I leave it at that??

I really appreciate you guiding me through this 🙏, I would've never thought of using reliability monitor if it wasn't for your suggestions. AMD just sucks I guess lol

@hankonnen  I'm glad that worked, and thanks for letting me know.  The thing is, I can't recommend (as in, it's not allowed on this site) downloading a .dll from a third-party site like that.  Some sites are more reliable than others, but there's always a risk.

Please remove the embedded download link as well.
