Do you have nVidia App overlay enabled and playing at 4K resolution with 572.16 or newer nVidia drivers?

Though the common failure with the Intel 13th and 14th gen CPUs causes an issue reading from memory so possible it is that.

EDIT: Googling brings up this for that error https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/1bulkix/wow_crashes_every_10_minutes_access_violation_the/
