Hey there! It sounds like you're dealing with some tricky RAM issues. After trying your setup, the instability you're experiencing—crashing tabs and games, blue screens—could point to a faulty RAM stick or an incompatibility. You mentioned mixing different sizes (8GB and 16GB DDR5), which might be contributing to the problems. It’s not uncommon for mixed configurations to cause headaches, but double-check that all sticks are the same type and model. If you're still unsure, consider testing one stick at a time or consulting the manufacturer guidelines. Let me know what you find!

Do you have an image of any BSODs? They often provide more details that can assist in diagnosing the issue.

I recommend setting up a MemTestUSB device, powering off your computer, reinstalling RAM, starting from the USB drive, and executing the diagnostic. You should locate MemTest under the "helpful programs" section.

They disappear too fast, leaving no chance to capture a photo... yet the reason for the crash keeps changing.

I executed the test following the initial pass, resulting in 21 errors. Is this typical? Should I run all four passes—it could take a while.

You're running the Kingston Fury Beast DDR5-5200MHz with a Cl40 processor and a Gigabyte Z690 motherboard.

Consider using only the 2x8 GB sticks you’re familiar with. If you return the ones you received last week, there’s no reason they’ll cause issues.

You might consider testing with just the 2x8GB drives to confirm the issue lies with those specific sticks. It seems we’ve identified the problem clearly—PC stability improved once they were removed.
