You're running a 12700/3070TI with only 8GB of DDR4 RAM and a bottlenecked GPU. Your current setup isn't handling higher frequencies well, especially at 1440p. Consider adding two 16GB sticks to boost memory capacity and potentially improve stability. Upgrading to faster RAM (like 3200MHz or higher) could also help, but you'll need to ensure your motherboard supports it. If you want better performance, look into overclocking options or a more powerful CPU.

I recently customized this unit to 4400MHz 17-17-17-34 @ 1.48V. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Lk9tt6/...m2z3600c14 Perhaps acquiring two units for a 4x8GB configuration? If not, the closest alternative I can locate quickly is this one, though it costs more per GB. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/3bxRsY/...16d-32gvka
